merc 90 hp 4 stroke carb question

[spareparts]

I reuse those o-rings all the time. If you need parts, its probably easier to get them for a Yamaha 90(same power head) Clean the needles and seats. IF you don't have a vacuum gauge set up, don't try to do it without one. They are very finicky. Dont use harsh chemicals to clean them( I use an ultrasonic cleaner). I you carry it to a shop, be prepared for sticker shock. BTW, those carbs are $700 each new.

I have a vacuum carb sync tool. I used to work on motorcycles, I would think its the same thing. I have a bunch of different adapters to screw into intake.

if you know how to use one, then it shouldn't be a problem. Bottom carb is the master carb, set the idle mixture screws back in the same place

looks like it has a plug over the fuel (idle) mixture screw. Drill and put a screw in and pull out is what I did on bikes. Supposed to be warm this week I might get time to pull carbs off. In 2 weeks the boat will be in the water for the summer and I don't want to do it sitting at the dock.

Pay CLOSE attention when you do them to get ALL the fuel circuits cleaned out when you do them. Some of those carbs have 4 fuel circuits(my Honda had 4, talk about a PITA). Sometimes there will be 2 or even 3 fuel pickups for the jets too, so make sure you get them all.
