Mercruiser turn key start re carb.

[havasuboatman]

I had a guy ask me what is in involved in putting a regular carb on a 2007 TKS motor.
Since I line in the desert, I have never even seen one. Any of you guys ever do one of these swaps, or know what is involved?

Never done one, would have to check the manual, may have to do minor rewiring maybe, but the normal carb is a bolt-on.

I have never done it, But it should not be too difficult at all, Because Mercruiser sales a very easy to install bolt on TKS kit for the older engines.

Keep in mind that if you do end up swapping the carb for him, you'll be his new superhero of boats.
