  • In this video I show how I disassemble my 2 barrel Mercarb from my 5.7L Mercruiser. It has been sitting for some time, so I thought it would be a good idea to throw a rebuild kit on it. Stick around to see how these things break down!
    P.S. I apologize for the audio problems. There wasn't really anything I could do.

    I have watched a few of your videos. Good stuff. I did this carb a few times on a 3.7. Just finished a weber 4bbl on a 6 cyl in our bayliner. One big thing, not sure if you mentioned it...is take LOTS of pictures when you do this. Some of the linkages can be confusing to put back on if you don't have a good idea of what they used to look like. The guy on Mikes Carburetor also has a really good video on this carburetor. You mentioned the paint you are using and I do the same. The etching primer and the rustoleum works really well and bonds well if the surfaces are absolutely clean and roughed up. I have used them on the carb, the drive and valve covers...and it bonds well. The cleanup on the carb I ended up using the pine-sol method with a high concentration with a follow up with carb cleaner and compressed air. The result was like night and day. If I figure out a way to post a before and after picture I will do it.

    Yes, a bit long winded. Easy to follow though. I have rebuild carburetors before, I know just enough to get me in trouble. This video series helped my confidence wile rebuilding my carb. It wasn't spoken like a mechanic, more like someone who likes to keep things running. 2 hours watching videos 1 hour to rebuild. I don't care my boat runs better then ever. Thank you.

    Is the Baffle Plate key to not flooding the Carb? I have taken mine apart and it is missing the Baffle Plate. I have a flooding issue in my carb and trying to figure out how to fix this.

    When you re assembled it did you use the spring for the needle and seat or the solid brass bar? Keep up the good work.

      David Loyd I used the spring since it was that way when I took it apart.. I'm going to keep the solid pin in case I ever have any issues with stalling out in sharp corners

    Can you tell me where to buy a rebuild kit?

    The noise isn't objectionable, I think you must have had your digital mobile telephone near the camera and that caused the noise I think.

    I had to watch at 2x speed cause this dude talks way to slow. And rambles. Get to the point. Time wasting 🤦‍♂️
