I have a 1996 25hp Mercury 2 stroke outboard. The carburetor was professionally rebuilt one year ago and the choke solenoid was replaced. I have put 15 hours on it since the work was done. Sometimes the idle speed is too high and it won't come down. Other times the idle speed is fine...
I have side mount Mercury brand remote controls that were used on a mid-90s 25hp. They mount on the port side. Can they be reversed to mount on the starboard side? Thanks.
I broke off a corner of the aluminum plate under the power head on a 25 hp mercury. Instead of spending over $200 on a replacement part, I thought I would try to repair it with JB Weld. Can anyone recommend an epoxy? Thanks.
