[anderso8623]

I have a model number 990243, 1979 OMC 4 cyl. I have been looking at carb kits all day and I just do want to get the wrong one. Any one have an Idea what part number I am looking for?

Thanks in advance

Jason

PS:

Only slight restoration this year, Next winter will be the big undertaking. I want to get it running well first.

None of the dealers in my are have one How about the sierra part number 18-7070 or the mallory part number 9-37616 off here? I just do not want to order the wrong part. By the way it is a 120.

I don't use the aftermarket stuff if I can help it, but those are probably ok.
There are lots of online Evinrude dealers that have the OEM kit.
not too many local dealers stock carb kits - they order it in

Here's one for $15
