merc 115 leaking fuel out all three throttle shafts

[rfiler]

Hi <br /> I bought this motor about 6 months ago, I do belive it is a 1985 115 hp serial #oa940706. <br /> Carbs are wmk-41. all three carbs seem to be leaking from the bottom of the throttle shaft.my manual says if there is any play in shaft to replace throttle body.to my knowledge the only throttle body is an efi.do they mean the entire carb?any help on this subject is appreciated.splitch

if fuel is leaking from your carbs, it's time to<br />rebuild them. make sure you get new floats and<br />new needle/seats. rebiulding them is easy once<br />you get off all the stuff to gain access.<br />good luck,<br />M.Y.
