    Float drop?

    I pulled apart my rochester 2bbl carb and am cleaning it up. Anyone know what the exact float drop is so I can check that also? It goes on a mercruiser 120 hp motor.

    Rochester carb advice

    I have a mercruiser 120 hp 1986 motor with a rochester 2bbl carb on it. I recently purchased the boat and the guy I bought it from said it had a hesitation to it when accelerating.

    Bow very light.

    Hey I am looking at another boat to purchase. It is a Glasstream 16 feet ski boat with a 120 mercruiser inboard motor. It drives very good except when you get going fast it starts bouncing in the front end unless you put weight up there. Any ideas on what that is or is it just the way the boat is?

    major tipping problem!

    Hey I bought an Avanti 17 feet 1987 ski boat with a 120 mercruiser last fall. Well I have had some major tipping problems with it when I take it out for cruising.

    Boat almost tipping over.

    I just bought a used avanti 1985 17 feet ski boat with a 120 hp mercruiser motor and an 18 pitch stainless prop. My question is when i take off with the trim down and start going up the boat sometimes goes dangerously close to tipping over on one side. Maybe I am just not experinced enough or is...
