First try to start her was 2 weeks ago. She ran a tad rough coupled with hard starting. I spent today checking everything, found a plug wire rubbed through and a (new) cracked spark plug. The wires kind of wove through the rear hoses, plus port side actually skipped the factory 4 wire holder, so they wore.
New merc wires, coil, replacement plug and fresh gas she is back to normal!!! :)
:) Ready for spring, best I can tell on the trailer that is..
Sounded great and ran fine, and loud!
I do believe what I have read about the ECU noticing the difference with the new exhaust and K&N. She does idle different, about 100 rpm's lower.
