Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if this carburetor fits my specific outboard model?
Check your engine's model, horsepower, and stroke type. Compare your existing carburetor's part number against the comprehensive list of direct replacements provided in our Part Number Matrix. When in doubt, a visual comparison between your old part and our product images is the most reliable method.
What are the signs my old carburetor is failing?
Common symptoms include difficulty starting (hard starts), rough or erratic idling, stalling at low speeds, poor acceleration, increased fuel consumption, or black smoke from the exhaust. Fuel leaks around the carburetor body are also a clear sign of failure.
Is any adjustment needed after installation?
This carburetor is designed as a direct-fit replacement and is often ready to use out of the box. However, minor adjustments to the idle speed or air-fuel mixture screw may be necessary to achieve optimal performance based on your specific engine's condition and local altitude.
What is the recommended maintenance for this carburetor?
To ensure longevity, always use high-quality, fresh fuel with a stabilizer, especially if the engine is used infrequently. Periodically check that all connections are secure and free of leaks. For long-term or winter storage, it is recommended to drain the fuel from the carburetor bowl to prevent gumming and deposits.
