Don't kill me for posting this as I have given a good shot at searching the forums. New member here, been viewing for a long time. I have an 86 tracker panfish with what I believe is an 84 merc 25 2 stroke. Carbs were professionally cleaned a while back before I got it ( my father in law had it done) but it hasn't run great in a few years. You have to keep the idle cranked up to keep running or she will die. I am assuming the carb needs rebuilt again. I run non ethanol and stabil for storage. My plan is to do the decarb with seafoam spray and run a tank through with seafoam and if it persist to not idle then I will pull the carb. Problem is I can't seem to find a rebuild kit this old outboard- would a newer kit work?
Lastly - I fish mostly around fort bragg NC as well as Jordan lake nc. The bragg lakes limit to 25hp which why we aren't upgrading. Is there a bigger carb that would fit the 25hp block or am I pissing up a rope on this one?
Thankyou much
