Mercruiser carb adjustment Printed From: CorrectCraftFan.com Category: Repairs and Maintenance Forum Name: Engine Repair Forum Discription: Engine problems and solutions URL: http://www.CorrectCraftFan.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2902 Printed Date: November-23-2024 at 7:52am Topic: Mercruiser carb adjustment Posted By: henkjvr Subject: Mercruiser carb adjustment Date Posted: January-19-2006 at 4:29am My friend has a 1983 S/N with a Mercruiser 198 (5L) engine. The engine sounds very rough and is under powered. I am not sure if it is a timing or carb setting problem. Where can I start to look for faults and is there perhaps a carb diagram (with location and standard settings) for the particular engine / carb. ------------- SN1990-Yellow Replies: Posted By: 79nautique Date Posted: January-19-2006 at 6:39am Well diffently start with the timing. Adjustments to the carb are meaningless otherwise. Check the plugs, cap and rotor first and make sure they are in good order, then set the timing, then go to the carb. ------------- http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=756&sort=&pagenum=1&yrstart=1979&yrend=1979 - 79 nautique
