Hello everybody, new here as a poster, but have been browsing for a while. I am just finishing up a cylinder 3&4 rebuild on my 1986 mercury 115 "tower of power". After hooking up the wiring, I was testing the trim and tilted the engine all the way forward and this "spare part" fell out! Heck, I don't even know if it goes to the motor or if it was something loose inside the cowling (I bought the motor needing a rebuild.)
I just can't place where this would go... Is it a carb piece? I've worked on a lot of engines, but not boat motors, and this has me stumped. Any ideas? I really don't want to tear it down again if I don't have to...
Thanks to anybody out there that can help!
