Hello I have a 1989 Mercury 9.9 2 stroke. I ordered a carb rebuild kit from a local shop and they gave me a Yamaha kit. I called and they said it will work but I'm still unsure. Will it work?
Great video. I'm preparing to first time take apart and clean the carb in my 85 mercury XD. The carb looks very similar to the one in this video. Is there a key difference on the pre-86 ?
Best videos on YouTube. Trust me I have watched them all. Quick question… The correct side up of the float and float height. The manual states one inch, but it doesn't say 1 inch from the needle rim end or 1 inch from the bottom of the bowl (top of the centre tube).
Thanks for the content. Ever in Ireland… I'll buy you a pint… or two.
THANK you for the video. My little 8 hp runs best with the choke open or half open. Then after it warms up the darn thing smells like its flooding. Then it won't start. Wait a day and starts right up. So I want to rebuild the carb and see if that helps. I bet the jet is dirty. After watching this video I bet I can do it myself.
An excellent video, I used it for my first attempt at a rebuild but a significant improvement for this process is after the carb is mounted to the block but BEFORE bolts are tightened (just catch some of the threads on the studs) and all other steps you mention are completed, install the idle/choke assembly. This made the installation very much easier as compared to what was demonstrated in your video.
Thanks for the video! I am in the process of cleaning my carb. Unfortunately my carb does not have the TOP plate cover that you remove at 6:20. Is this part vital for function? Thanks
How can I get the small BB in the primer enrichment above the spring? I dropped mine and cannot afford $130 for a complete overhaul kit. Excellent video. I just found your channel and subscribed.
I have a 2-stroke 9.9 Mariner outboard 1989 that I am working on. If I pour gas into the throat of the carb, it starts and stays running. It also restarts on first pull. But if I leave it one day, I can not restart it without pouring gas into the carb. Any idea what to look for on the carb?
Thanks for the great detailed video on this carburetor cleaning and rebuild. I would have never tackled this project had it not been for you making it seem so simple. Same with the video about replacing the thermostat. My motor thanks you also! Glad I found your channel. Keep making these Mercury Outboard videos. I'm sure I'll need more info soon.
Very good point about the ball ( BB ) on the carburetor Bowl. I sure hope someone looks at these comments again because I'm right in the middle of rebuilding my carburetor and the little BB I speak of is missing! Where can I get another one? I've looked everywhere and can't find one. Hope somebody can help me. Thanks
Thank for your great videos. I got my carb cleaned but the top of my fuel pump broke off right after the motor started. ( the piece that has a screw through it). What is that screw for? Will the fuel pump work with that piece broken off?
@7:50. That top part bubbles out gas on mine…. When at full throttle it wont leak but when it bogs down at full throttle it bubbles/leaks gas,,,, can it be cause the holes are clogged up????
Sir, I have a 1986 Mercury 6hp but my carburetor does not have the plastic assembly with the spring and diaphragm in it. Mine has a solid piece thith the stop screw in it. I believe the model is Wmc5a. I do not understand how this pulses to get fuel ? There is nobody in my area that works on these old outboards. there is also a hose off the carburetor but not in the same location as the one on your carburetor. It was not connected to anything. I see a "T" in your vent hose , can you tell me where that hose connects on the engine ? Thanks

Very informative and very well explained (like a real pro)…. Thank you !

Great video but I need help with my 1978 model. Can I update to a new carb?

Which way does the float go on? Is there a way to tell on the piece?

Do you have a link to the gasket replacement kit?

Anyone know what the model # of this carb is
That manifold gasket isn't going to work.
The top plate gasket was not rubber when you removed it. But you installed a rubber gasket. Why?
