Re: Decarbing a 200hp Evinrude/Finding the Carberator
I endorse Rickdb1boat's recommendation to use that method for decarbing - I just think it's easier, but don't know if it's more effective than the way you're trying.<br /><br />But even if you didn't need access to the carbs for decarbonization (is that a word?), you'll want to get at them for fall fogging probably.<br /><br />So, to answer your question: Yes, it has carbs you gotta have faith! In fact, it may have three!<br /><br />Unless it's fuel injected, in which case ignore the following.<br /><br />I am not familiar with your engine. But just in case no one else responds (not bloody likely?): My (older than yours) Johnson V6's carbs are covered by a large black plastic air intake. As I look at the engine with the cover off, this black plastic thing dominates the entire front of the engine, pretty much from top to bottom. On the front, it has no openings. On it's sides, kind of slanted rearward, it has 3 large air intakes on each side for a total of 6. It is fastened to the engine by many hex head screws around it's perimeter, some of which are a little difficult to remove and replace because of clearance issues.<br /><br />Under that cover/air intake are the carbs. You can see evidence of them looking around and behind the air intake, but you really can't see the openings of the carbs. It's kind of like a car - the air cleaner covers the carb(s).<br /><br />On my engine, once the air intake is removed, there are three obvious carbs stacked vertically on the front of the engine block. Even if I had never paid for fuel for my engine, just looking at those three things in a row, I would just KNOW that it is a gas guzzler (which it is!).<br /><br />Hope this helps a little.
