I have family close to there, if he is good. This outboard ran great for years with no problems, but then it sat for over a year due to family issues.
I'm sure it just needs the carburetors cleaned.
I need an outboard mechanic who is good with carbureted Mercury/Mariner engines. Outboard is a Mariner 3 cylinder 40 hp, 1998 model.
Any recommendations?
