It's a MC-1 on a 1970 starcraft V-180 I/O with a 140 mercruiser under the "hood"

That should have the metering body under the square cannistor. Has 1 flex line and 1 plastic line. There is also a reverse lockout valve in the system usually mounted on the transom.
Dont know of any rebuiding kits. Might have a old one kicking around. Will pm of i locate it.

Ok on the PM. Is this a common problem with these or is it just mine. I just bought the boat yesterday at an estate auction, got it for a STEAL at $125. I have spent $18 on it today to get the engine running. This boat has set for at least 10 yrs in a building. Make a dashpanel for the guages and do the interior ( seats and carpet) and also this problem with power t/t then ready for boating. Can I pull it apart and clean the crap out of it?

whay you can try is get it on a bench, drain whats in there, remove the 6 or 8 bolts on the bottom and look inside . everything comes out attached to the bottom plate.Like I said, Adults Only section for the manual.Could try , held on with 4 bolts and some O rings seals

Re: Power tilt/trim now

I got volumes 1 and 2 with the boat, plus the operaters manual. Along with most of the original paperwork. Will look in manuals; I wanted to make sure it can be done before I looked at the manual to see how.
