Hey ya'll,
I have a 1970 Mercury outboard that I have put new needle and seat assemblies in, and a new fuel pump, and I can not get the carbs to stop leaking? Someone said it may possibly be the reed valves are weak? The motor runs great at wide open throttle but as soon as you throttle down it starts to run rough and then dies, with fuel leaking out of the carbs?
Any help would be appreciated, as this is driving me crazy! THANKS
