Is there someone that knows where I can get parts for auto blend or is some thing out there that has taken its place besides premixing?

There are not parts available because they were junk. Ruined thousands of engines and at first there were a couple of repair kits out, then with the problems they caused all parts were discontiued. The is a company Marine Solutions Inc. that builds a electric system for mercury V6 engines you might check with them and see if it's adaptable to your engine.

They're really not kidding! Those Auto-Blend units worked great when they worked. However, when they failed, they caused catastrophic failure of the engine.

Pre-mix is definitely the way to go with motors using that system. The slight loss of convenience far outweighs the potential for destruction of the powerhead.
