Fuel pumps generally malfunction over time, and when the fuel pump finally gives out, your motor is essentially dead in the water until it is fixed.

They’re also relatively inexpensive when compared to other necessary engine repairs. \u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eClogged Fuel Injectors\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e - If your MerCruiser features fuel injection instead of a carburetor, carbon will eventually build-up in each of the individual fuel injectors to prevent a smooth distribution of fuel. When carbon clogs the fuel injector, your outboard will often misfire, vibrate excessively, and bog down during idle or when the throttle is applied - not to mention a noticeable drop in fuel economy.
