Evening all, would anybody be kind enough to provide me detailed instructions as to how to correctly set the float levels in a 70hp '89 Merc ? I do have a manual, but it's around 500km from here.

not sure about the '89, but I believe they are<br />even with top of bowl when turned upside down.<br />hopefully someone more familiar with that year<br />will chime in also.<br />good luck,<br />M.Y.

MY is correct...flip the carbs over and make sure the floats are parallel to the base. ie not at any angle.<br /><br />TMD
