Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I confirm this kit fits my specific engine?
The best way is to match your engine model, year, and serial number against our compatibility tables. If you can identify your carburetor as a Rochester 2G (2-barrel) model and your original part number matches one listed in the Part Number Matrix (like MerCruiser 823427A1 or OMC 982384), this kit should fit.
What are signs my carburetor needs rebuilding?
Common symptoms include difficulty starting, rough idling, engine hesitation or stalling, black smoke from the exhaust (running rich), or visible fuel leaks from the carburetor body. This kit is designed to fix issues caused by worn gaskets, a faulty accelerator pump, or a leaking needle and seat.
Is this kit compatible with modern ethanol-blended fuels?
Yes. This kit includes an updated accelerator pump and other components made from alcohol-resistant materials to prevent deterioration from E10 and other ethanol-blended gasolines, which is a common failure point for older carburetor parts.
What common mistakes should I avoid during installation?
Avoid overtightening screws, which can warp the carburetor body. Ensure all gasket surfaces are perfectly clean and dry before installing new gaskets. Do not spray carburetor cleaner on rubber or plastic parts. Finally, be sure to set the float height correctly, as an incorrect setting will cause performance issues.
