For now I will just be happy to get it running. It was a $80 motor so I dont want to stick to much into it, I have spark and compression so now I will clean the carb and check the waterpump. Probably need a new one but to test run in a barrel hoping this one is still flexable enough for a short run. If it runs it will get a new one. My old Johnsons and Evinrudes parts can usually be found for a fair price, Mercury its not so easy but for the price of this one I thought I would take a chance on it. Supposedly it ran five years ago but has been sitting since then. Thanks for the information on the fuel lines. Maybe I will just flush them out for now and go from there. I have always replaced them on the older OMCs but this mercury with that hydrolic line style isn’t something I want to purchase.
