    Idle problem 115 2+2

    Idle problem 115 2+2

    Started having idle problems. so bad the gears were slapping noisy. It ran great above 1200 rpm. I sure am suspecting an idle port blockage on 1 of the 2 carbs that have those ports. Is there anything else I should consider? what 2 carbs have those idle ports, and how should I clean them?

    New lower unit for my merc 115 4 cyl need shift shaft upgrade

    New lower coming from SEI. My merc had the 3 jaw reverse. SEI said I had to upgrade shift shaft, it means I must pull powerhead. Merc is not corroded at all. I have a lift tool. Any thoughts on anything I should do while powerhead is up?
