Faztbullet, Racerone, Flying Scott to name 3 could answer that question. Ping one of them. The 3 and 4 cylinder engines of that time period are very, very similar in fact the manual from 1994to 2007 more or less is the same book with separate sections only for the 3 vs 4 cyl powerhead. Like...

The screw is a great idea too. Glad you were successful. "You gave me the motivation to give it another go." I find that my motivation is challenges that I have accepted and overcome over my life. Like seeking an answer to something: If you don't ask the question, how can you expect an...

And yet another is that you go out and float or anchor and have lunch and visit, enjoying being out on the water, then enjoy water sports, or vise versa. 2 hours of water sports is a lot of tubing, or skiing. Or you cruise around on a Sunday afternoon and run up the hour meter. I think...

Walmart in Greenville, Tx. is where I bought my OEM for the listed price last year for my recently purchased 2002 rig.

You can leave the LU intact. Just remove the prop and thrust washer on the prop shaft and get to it. Drill a hole in the metal and take a pick, like a SSdental pick, stick it in the hole, or holes if you choose, and pry the outer seal out. Then you can grasp the metal of the inner seal and...

Was out a couple of days ago and running my usual 3000-3500 sweet spot at 20-25 MPH, nice comfortable cruise, no problem maintaining trim/boat attitude, soft ride. Decided to punch on out and get some WOT data also. Running the Mercury Laser II original square ported prop. Slip at the...

Short history. Bought this used rig last summer and didn't like the performance. Problems to me were transitioning from 2 to 4 was rough and after getting on 4 it took awhile to clean the plugs out so that I could get WOT RPMs. Once they cleaned out, with the prop I selected I was sitting...

Tried to post a picture this am and got this instead of the pic. being posted. Where do I go from here? Thanks.

As I was tweaking the used boat I purchased last summer, I had a nice set of Farina gauges on the dash but in the center was a 3" unused circle. Thought about what to put there......Since I was not familiar with the engine and the existing water pump was doing a fine job from idle on up, I...

Would someone please share with me the user name and password for Mercury's online ez-parts lookup. Twice now I have gotten into the list somehow, did my business, bookmarked the page and the next time I pulled up the bookmark I got the Home page requiring a log in. Thanks, Mark

I have a new to me, 2002, 115 HP, 2 stroke Merc. 4 cyl 2+2 engine. Playing around with it I've been learning how it works and what I could do to make it better. I decided to put in new fuel pump and accelerator kits, noting that the old diaphragms were much stiffer than in the new OEM kits so...

I have an early, like late 1980's Laser, for 115 hp engine, not the current Laser II, with square PVS ports. I want to close them and want to use rubber plugs. Is the 4 pack of square plugs, PN 19220A4 the correct square plug? Thanks

Without regard to anything but the posted subjects, HP is reduced: by 3.5%/1000' of altitude and by 1% per 10*F of ambient temperature above 60F. Picked this up on the www on a petroleum site discussion. What is needed to complete this is the relative humidity since (in my opinion) that has...

Things are quiet so let's post something. I've noticed over the years that OMC engines get half again more postings as Mercury. Question I have been asking myself was, is that because of more problems, or more units in the field? Now I ask your opinion.

Online Merc parts, couple of questions: 1. What are the public access codes, name and pw? 2. Once you go to all the trouble of getting to the part you want, how do you keep the site from timing out on you after just a few minutes which locks you out requiring #1 question info which you don't...

I hadn't been on a certain lake for half a dozen years. My outing Friday was on that lake. So I tooled around to see what changed making full use of the 2 ea 4" $99 free shipping, Hummingbird, color, sonar sets. One transducer was epoxied to the hull with JB Weld, right at the transom, inside...

Recently acquired a 2002 model Heritage Custom Trailer. Pulling up the Heritage www today, they talk about Vault Hubs on their trailers. Wondering what is on my '02. Peculiar end on the hub, like a solid, cast, (not stamped like on most non boat types with the lip for removal) steel cap...

We were on the subject the other day and I quoted from a 1996 (as I recall) published Merc. Service Manual for 60 Jet through 125 HP 3 and 4 cylinder Mercs of that and later era. I stated that the manual said that one COULD (nice rubber word) expect to have problems if below 120 PSI or over 15%...

Was out a couple of days ago. Still getting used to newly acquired used boat. I have every confidence in the condition of the equipment. Get the trailer in the water, jump in, full of glee and excitement for some fun, hit the key, she rolls up like she should but won't light off....won't even...

Just stumbled across this today. https://www.boattest.com/view-news/3276_which-is-better-4-blades-or-3-blades Interesting as recently posted on here, I purchased my first 4 blade (actually 2) prop after 50+ years of boating. Turning Point Hustler had an interesting write up and having run...
