I have not done much more than to replace the spark plugs and wires on a car. As far as it goes so I need a lot of help. Read that there was a Mercruiser 'genuine' manual through past threads after I had already bought the Seloc version. So if that would help I would get that, just need the where... Its a mid 70's 140 I/O. I need to replace the shift cable bellows because it is taking in water there. The boat needs some other engine work but just had a tune up about three months ago. THis was by my regular mechanic and it was running. Now I cant get it to start cause it was sitting several months in the sun... Before the tune up for two years sitting then I bought it. Mechanic is unwilling to replace the bellows because of the time expanse of the project. So I decided to take it on. With help hopefully from you.
Also I was wondering if I needed to take the other bellows apart if I just replace the shift one. They look alright but I haven't taken the stern drive off or the bellow housing to see it.
Thanks.
