9.9 Carb Rebuild...?'s please help

[FlatsFisher12]

I just bought a 9.9 1995 johnson short shaft. Put a bad tank to it and got crap in the carb... i rebuilt the carbs on a '74 50 horse and im hoping I can do tyhe same here... any helpful comments on how to go about it or what not to touch/ mess with would be greatly appreacited.
They said they just replace the carb before i bought it so the internals should be good? not need replacing?

thanks for any help

If you've already tackled the job before, it should be no big deal. I'd get a carb kit as long as I'm tearing it open - what the previous owner says and what he actually did may be two different things.

Just got done doing this about two hours ago on my 1987 9.9 and it runs like a top now. I was given this link and found it very informative on the removal of the carb.. http://www.sschapterpsa.com/ramblings/OMC/OMC info.htm
as well as other service related things. This was the first outboard I have ever torn into and now I can have that carb out in literally 5 or so minutes. Good luck.
