I just picked up a mercury 2.2 and i'm looking for a couple parts. Turns out the fellow that I got the motor from not only smashed the cowling and lost the gas cap but he also tried to sand down the needle valve.
The fuel cap lists as 36-812912 and the needle and seat kit is 95263A1
I know that these parts can be found on Ebay but they want a fortune for them and shipping to Canada is through the roof lol. Does anyone know if there is a more common needle and or seat that will work in this setup? Can I use a different mercury fuel cap?
I am buying and repairing to sell if that makes this any more logical. I paid $50 for the motor but it's really only $200 repaired without the cowl I imagine and the cowl is nearly impossible to find as well.
