    2000 Mercury 75hp 4 stroke carb running rough

    Hi everyone, I have a 2000 model mercury 75hp carb motor that runs kind of rough sometimes. Seems to be getting a little worse. I cleaned the carbs out really well last season and it ran fine, not as smooth as I would like, but fine. This year it seems to be getting back to its same old...

    Need 1960 Merc 400 starter

    Hi All. I am pretty sure my starter is fried. It wouldnt turn the engine over so i pulled it apart. Looks to me like the wires that wrap around the magnet in there may have had it.
