    Fuel floating on water arond running engine.

    A friend has a 90 hp 2003 Mercury 2 stroke and it idles a little rough and leaves excessive fuel floating on the water. The fuel is coming out of the exhaust. Anyone have any idea what is wrong? I am a fairly decent shade tree mechanic on my Yamaha 40 but have no knowledge of a Merc.

    Waterpump on P40

    Hello, I have a 1998 P 40 yamaha 2 stroke. I have owned it for the past 7 years. It has the original waterpump. Would it be a good idea to put in a rebuild kit just for preventative reasons and how often should this be done? I fish an average of 3 days a week year round so I use it a lot. BTW...
