I have a Mercury 3.7 Alpha one 165 hp engine. The engine will turn over but will not fire. I can see gass in the carb. Seems to be flooding and if I leave it for a while it may start. This happens every time. The dealer told me I need a new carb.

Rebuild the carbs.... Get a repair/maintenance manual for your engine and have at it.... Follow the instructions..and you'll get back to fishing...<br /><br />And follow your starting instructions to a tee, before you tear into it. Just to make sure...<br />Good luck and let us know....
