can you help me out. i need a video for the how to intstall the electric start. i just have a hole next to the stop button. oh yea also if its possible can you please make a video on how to flush, change gear oil or watever gotta do with that motor. it will really help me and a whole lot of people out there that have that same outboard. let me know plz email me at zenaschhoeum@gmail.com in response to anything you might be doing to this motor in the coming future. THANK YOU in advance. take care
I sold the power head for parts but everything else was rotted out from salt water use and no cleaning
Did you get it running in the end Ed?
Love the 70s and 80s Mercurys. The 7,5 has thru hub exhaust I think? What a waste, it’s very clean!
hi
i had a 1972 mercury 20hp and the sparks were huge
Hi I have a 9.8hp i have just purchased i have had to replace the stator and i took the carbie off last night and found that the fuel was milky. i know the feul in the tank is good cause i use this with my other motor will be giving the carb a clean today the motor had no spark that is why i replaced the stator and still could not get it going which lead me to the carbie hobe that this will be the problem.
I need a starter for my engine, where can i get one like that one for 7.5 merc?

I have the same motor. Found it in my father-in-law’s shed after being forgotten for 10 years. Started on the first try with some quick start. Runs amazing.
I have this motors slightly bigger brother, a 9.8HP. That mercury electronic ignition system can throw some serious voltage out to those plugs. I’ve never seen a spark on a small engine jump as far as these make them go
Good video mate, will be good once running! 😀 Good job.
yeah outboards are fun 😀
you always seem to find a way to bypass the messed up parts and get things working 😀 haha AC/DC FTW!
cool. it should run nice.
