Re: carb tester

My guess is you are at least going to have to say what make, model, type, etc. "Carb Tester" you bought.

Re: carb tester

Tell us what symptoms you have first. Merc inline 6's are finicky. Why don't you start another thread with a title of "Merc inline 6 carb problem", then list your problem..dump this thread
