Appreciate your reply, but that is not the correct head the M70B from the late 90s is a 3 cylinder. I know how to search eBay … there is not a direct match for sale on there for my motor currently, the 3 cylinder ones listed are for a newer model so the water jacket and thermostat location are...
Thanks for the response, good to know about the 60hp block same era should share parts. I assume the ones sold as mercs would of been the old “sea pro” two strokes?
One of the bolts snapped flush with the surface of the head, instead of welding on a nut and doing it right I thought that since...
I have a late 90s 70hp (M70B) motor, while attempting to remove the head to change the head gasket the head cracked. I've been looking around online trying to find a replacement without much luck, is there any other models that would have the same part that fits the M70B?
I have a 200hp XP on the back of a bass boat that has the case of the "shakes" it moves side to side about 3/4" I believe either the top motor mounts are worn and/or the swivel bushing is worn out. How hard of a job is this to tackle? I can do basic maintenance like water pump/carbs etc but have...
I have a 1997 225 Yamaha OX66 that I bought used from a local shop, they installed the motor on the boat put all new gauges/controls/wiring/fuel lines/fuel filters/cleaned the injectors/new water pump/new thermostats/new PRV basically did a major tune up on the engine (all of this was done about...
I have a 1992 40hp mercury 4cyl, both of my fuel bowl baffles are broken. Ive tried every shop around Houston and non of them have the part, no online stores that I've found have the part either because its obsolete. Do any of you guys know a "hard to find" mercury parts store/website that may...
Im looking at picking up a 1990 22ft CC Mckee craft hammer head and was wondering if any of you guys know anything about these boats and how they were constructed , the only problem I saw when I looked at it was the deck lid over the gas tank seemed soft, but I think its made out of glass not...
I have a 1987 225 johnson that just started having warning horn issues. When im running over 4k RPM the horn will start to sound like its going to go off then stop, basically when the boat bounces the horn will make a sound but not full blast kinda like a screech, but if I back off the throttle...
HI guys I just picked up a 1998 mariner 25hp (Serial # 0G639593). I got the motor for basically free with a nice all welded flat bottom and trailer. Its a very clean motor and the previous owned claimed it sat up most its life and it sure looks that way under the cowl. I got a carb rebuild kit...
I am in the process of rebuilding the carbs on my 1992 40hp 4cyl Mercury and I noticed that on my bottom carb the fuel bowl baffle is broken, this is probably the reason my float was sticking causing fuel to pour out of the vent.
My question is what is the purpose of the baffle, Ive never seen...
I have a 1992 40hp merc 4cyl on a 13ft whaler , I'm currently running the prop that was out it from the factory (12P). The boat does not have a tach so I'm just posting to see if someone else has a similar setup and what pitch prop you are using. I'm looking to get a better hole shot and more...

My motor was not warming up at all, would only get to about 110 after running at 4000 RPM for a while ( No more than 80 deg and idle) so I figured my thermostats were stuck open. The Thermostats in my motor were black and appreard to be missing parts they were very light compared to my new ones...
My swim ladder screw broke off (Sheared) its under the water line and I can't back the rest of the screw out with vise grips theres not enough to grab its almost flush with the transom. I was thinking about covering the screw with 5200 and moving the ladder mount over 1/2 in and just adding a...
