Mercury, getting right parts?

[tedcook]

I am learning slowly. I am trying to get a carb rebuild kt for my mercury 70 hp, ser # 4980610. i looked through the iboats store and orderd a kit it listed but that is not the right one. I even have a mercury part number(7212) i think. if there is any help that would be great other wise i am looking at sixty bucks fo kits. also with that there is a venturi that is no longer avail? does that meen that is not needed?

Welcome to the aftermarket arena of the marine world. I am there too. Trying to decipher the correct fuel pump.......maybe I should just give it up and take my engine off and float my boat on my farm pond, or just use it for target practice.

If your ordering thru iBoats you need: (2) 18-7004 gasket kits...(2) 18-7249 float and needle assy and the venturi will be a Merc item. Since its NLA call a buddy of mine as he has a ton of old Merc parts and ask for Hank or try Seaway Marine.
