Older Mercury engine problems

[lookinforwalleye]

posting this for a buddy who has a older Merc probably late 70`s early 80 65 HP.

 

He bought the motor recently and it runs fine on the muffs startrs easy but when the motor is put into gear it just stalls out, gas is good plugs seem fine....

nything in particular we should be looking at?

TIA.
