Bought a boat with a 25hp Mercury on it. Want to start going through the motor. Serial number 5943879. 1983 maybe?? Anyway I cannot find a carb rebuild kit on the net. Can someone please advise me as to the correct kit number I should be looking for and where on the net to buy it. I appreciate any help so much!!!! I want to get this motor in the best running condition I can and since it has been sitting for a few years I am just going to go ahead and rebuild the carb. I cranked it just to make sure it does run, but it needs some work to be reliable for my family.

I've never bought carb "kits" for my outboard motors.

I usually buy the individual parts needed from a Mercury dealer without issue.

Carb kits are sold for just about every other motor but the one I have it seems!! The kit contains all new gaskets and such so that you can tear down the carb, clean it and then put it back together with new gaskets and other things. I would never tear down a carb without having a kit first.

Sorry, I'm usually more interested in doing "the repair" than finding "a kit".
