The question was about a '99 135. it should be a solid engine. No issues with that model/year that are unusually prevalent.
I have a '99 135 HP carbed Mercury and have been very happy with the reliability over 5 years of use. If I didn't know any better, I'd think there was a hole in the gas tank, but I am afraid that is just the nature of the proverbial beast, in this case. Other than drinking gas like a college freshman who has just discovered his first beer bong, the motor has been as solid as the Ranger hull/transom it's mounted to (knock on wood). |
