Hello - I recently purchased a 1987 sea ray with a 4.3 mercruiser. It runs pretty well overall but the carb clearly is in need of repair (floods out, choke plate stuck, etc). As best I can tell it has the stock 2bbl merc carb (based on the model# stamped on the carb). My question is; has anybody ever tried purchasing one of those off those off the shelf edelbrock or holley carbs from autozone and installed on this motor? Will it work? Will the linkage work? How do you adapt the elect choke? Better off just doing a rebuild on the stock carb?
Thanks!
Thanks!
