Re: Mercruiser 140hp running rough

I dunno bond-o, It says farm power equipment right on it... Not that that's really the point. And the rust is recent, due to rain water from when the cover blew off a couple weeks ago. I will definitely do some serious checking for leaks though just incase. Mike, sorry about the pictures and part numbers. I ended up working late and it was dark when I got off. I will get them to you first thing tomorrow though. As for the availability of the parts, I have no idea but ill get you those part numbers so you can check it out. As a matter of fact with the way this thing has been fighting me, I just may have a turbo setup for sale soon. I plan on finally actually putting some time in on the old girl tomorrow so I'll put all that good advice to use and let you all know how it goes. Thanks again for all the input

Ayuh,.... I think you'll find that, That's the core business of M&W Machine Co.....

Not the application of those castin's...

No worries my boat is in storage till april 1st.

Let me know what you find with your checking.

If for whatever reason you think you might want to sell it please give me a call I would be very interested in it.

Re: Mercruiser 140hp running rough

Hi, have a 17 ft Larson that I bought with a bad motor so I am swapping the stock merc 120 for a 140 with this same setup. but the intake manifold may be junk or I might need some new gaskets. where can I find them for this setup?
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Re: Mercruiser 140hp running rough

just looked at his picture and the part numbers on his are the same as mine so exactly the same setup

Re: Mercruiser 140hp running rough

I know most are m and w... do you know if I can get new gaskets or intake manifold anywhere. My coworker who is helping me with the motor swap wants to tear down the intake and start with fresh gaskets plus the intake must have cracked on the previous owner and was slathered in what appears to be jb weld... so I may need a new one. If we cant find gaskets or repair the intake we may have to give up on the turbo and return the motor to natural aspiration. Does anyone have any ideas where to find parts for this setup
