    What was mounted here?

    That is where the dash pot is. A rod and spring design which is the choke for the carb. As the intake warmed up the spring would lift the rod and open the choke. Probably was replaced by an electric choke

    Yanmar 3YM30 temp gauge readings way off

    ok thanks The wiring should be of no issue so long as they have good connections. The gauges draw very little current and 18ga is enough and 14ga is even better. Assuming your gauges are the north American standard (240 ohm cold to 33 ohms hot) you can place the sender on the stove and heat...

    1975 351cu 233hp Mercruiser, riser block off plates or not?

    One side will run a bit hotter then the other which is correct. So far as the block off gasket, unless the motor is closed cool it should not use it

    5.7l mercruiser gen 1 alpha 1 to vortec head swap problem please help...

    Depends on what your comfortable with. Even with a new carb I would check what the plugs look like after a few runs. Slow quickly and pull some plugs. Don't want to idle much because that can change the reading Either that or have to install exhaust bungs and use a air fuel ratio meter
