    Mercruiser outdrive oil/liquid leak during winter

    Your leaking on the outside, so start there. By the looks of your boots you may need to replace them also. In any case remove the bell housing to gain access to the hose Look at the inside hose to see if it also needs replacing and then see if there is enough access

    Mercruiser carburetor question

    Doing anything on Muffs means nothing other then it will run Going from 4500 full load to idle can cause many motors to have trouble. Idle is set at 700 RPM and should maintain that under load (idling in the water in gear)

    Wiring a kill switch to 85h chrysler magnapower

    No The kill switch does the same thing as the key switch. To start the motor the key removes the ground from the magneto. To stop the motor the key grounds the magneto. Place the kill switch across the same 2 contacts of the key switch (2 mag terminals)
