    1996 Mercury 30 HP Primer Bulb Routing

    Thanks for responding. I know what you mean about the solenoid activated key switch primer, but this engine doesn’t have that.

I bought the boat slightly used in 2002 and have never had a reason to try it out. We're planning a short trip to a marina next week and thought of actually using the...

    Left-Hand or Right-Hand Engine ?

    I have a single 7.4 Bravo III sterndrive in my 27' Searay. I recently removed the engine-driven seawater pump for replacement and neglected to note the positions of the two 1-1/2" water hoses to the nipples on the plastic impeller housing. Near one nipple is stamped "RH Out", and the other "LH...
