How to check fuel pressure in a Mercury 200?
Re: 2000 mercury 200 efi, starvrting for fuel… Check fuel pressure with the motor running, if pressure is low, i9mmediately shut off the motor and drain the VST into a suitable container watching to see if there is sufficient volume of fuel to fill the VST.
Why does my Mercury outboard not start up?
I had some fuel problems with my 9.9 4 stroke outboard. I found out that is was a loose screw in the fuel pump. At first i through it was a clogged fuel line but it wasn’t. Carburetors are good too. Smptoms: After priming the fuel bulb the engine can start up and idle but about 1 minute later is will cut out.
What causes mercury 4 stroke fuel line problems?
If you have a Mercury EFI 4 stroke, I recommend you get to know the symptoms of FSM problems and dont let the shop BS you around installing filters and replacing fuel line bulbs. This isnt caused by ethanol, but by cheap OEM sourcing by Merc. Next time, it’ll be a Honda for me.
Is the Mercury 200 EFI starvrting for fuel?
Re: 2000 mercury 200 efi, starvrting for fuel… good ole EFI motors, just sold mine yesterday, frikin expensive pain in the butt motor it was. going back to a much better design called carbs. You need to get a fuel gauge..they are cheap on e-bay or places like harbor freight tools.
