    Flywheel for 40hp

    1982 Mercury electric start. The magnets are damaged but the stator is not. I don't have any information on this CL find. Ebay doesn't have one just like it. ME does not have # for that year or sn. Number on fw looks to be 43307A5 but last three digits are distorted. Any help is appreciated.

    Coleman...how good/bad ?

    I got a 2013 4hp (4 stroke) when I bought a used boat. It runs fine in the barrel but I haven't had it on the river. It's too small and I want to sell it. It has very little time on it. I haven't seen much online about Coleman quality. It's made by Parsun in China.

    It pertains to a switch box for a 76 Merc 7.5hp. Would you buy a NOS Mercury box or a new CDI? The CDI is $25 higher. The considerations are age,quality of components etc .

    Float pin spring

    It's a Walbro LMB 229 618061 on a '84 Sea King/Chrysler 15. The carb did not have this spring when I took it apart but the needle/seat kit has one. The pic on marine engine shows it. Does it definitely have to be installed ?
