    '00 Mercury 90hp, oil injection still works, time to replace it with premix or replace worn parts?

    I agree the 3 and 4 cylinder rarely fail. the V6s that's a different issue. I have a 75 and 90 hp I am rebuilding and they will get their oil injection put back on.

    9.9hp water in crankcase oil

    That's a 4 strk thing it actually has a name, it's called making oil. If the thermostat is bad the motor runs cold and produces condensate, which then ends up in the oil.

    Impeller replaced

    Are you sure the pee hole is not connected to the thermostats? Some models of Merc Require the thermostats to open to pee. Also on muffs should take far less than 90 seconds to bleed out the air.

    The manual choke on that motor works better than the electric choke does.

    Carb for 1985 Mercury 25XD

    The way that Choke works is you pushing the key and it closes the little port. When you release the key it uncovers the port. Your primer mech would have had the square know. The newer style has a round knob.
