I've got an old bass tracker pro tournament 179 w/ a 50hp mercury 2 stroke(late 80's early 90s). This thing just won't run but about 26mph with me in the boat(now im a big fella 6'4" 330lbs). By the tach its showing to to be pulling about 5,800rpm but it takes FOREVER to get there. Don't try to make a sharp turn and its falling back off plane instantly and takes a while to pull it back up. I don't recall what prop is on it right off hand. I'm pretty sure its the original tho.
I'm gunna put a new water pump in it this week(still on the original) and check the compression on the cylinders. Some of the wires on the motor look old and kind of corroded, could it be possible that the spark for it is breaking down? I'm gunna replace the trigger assembly and maybe the stator also bc of the wires. Well that's if the compression checks out ok.
Any other ideas? It does look to be getting full throttle.
