Good info, Thanks Phatdaddy. I forget T-stats.
That is a big one right there. It looks like the fuel rail comes off to do those on this one. Damn. It shall be done.
Poppet, I have done two on Opti's now. I waited until the diaphram bit the dust and flooded the cowl with salty H2O on the first one.. Second one was done as a preventative measure.

Anyone else,

I certainly didn't mean to limit the field on this inquiry. I know there are some brilliant folks here beyond those mentioned. LOL

Thanks in advance..

If you wanna go all out you could send the injectors(all 12) out to BROCATO for cleaning and flow testing. And not sure on the OPTI, but I know on most dry throttle bodies you should clean it out as well as the IAC every so often.

Motor is still running like a top. Injectors, air/fuel, that would be a winter job. This thing has IAC? I bet you are correct about the dry intake with reeds it will be gummy on the backside of the throttle plate. I will look into it. I have been hesitating to do anything except put fuel and oil to her. I hear the TPS is a joke and cannot/will not take even so much as a drop of water.
Scallop season is on us, vacation too, don't want to get too involved. Can't afford the down time. I was thinking of pulling the VST for a good cleaning and do a decarb. Still running ringfree, and 93 or 91 recreation..

Thanks again

just do the basics, put a new water pump in it(mercury brand only), make sure the oil line to the compressor is clear. I'd look hard at the VST unless you knew wildman was already in there. Look at the thermostats and keep on running it.

Thanks and thanks.
Just returned from the Mercman getting place. No t-stats on the shelf, recommended I take a peek. Tomorrow morning I will jam on it.
