mercury 90hp 1982 carburators??
Question
Hello,
I have a 90hp 1982 mercury 6cyl boat motor. it leeks at the carburators. I changed the float and needle vaules. It is still leaking. When i squeeze the ball gas come out of just one of the carburators. I tried to adjust the cut off where the float hits but is still leakes. Do you have any suggestions?? Thanks

Hi Eugene...Thanks for selecting the undersigned to reply to your question. Unfortunately, I'm not sure what you really mean by saying "it leaks at the carbs". Exactly where is the leak? Where is the fuel actually leaking from?
I'm not a mechanic but, did you check to see whether the diaphram and gaskets might be defective? Are the carbs and fuel lines properly seated and secure? Best you consult a qualified and reliable marine mechanic familiar with Mercury o/b mtrs to diagnose and repair the problem.
