Scored a nice clean 69 merc 7.5. She was dirty from 30 or 40 years of sitting.
Long story short gave her a bath, impeller and found a fuel connector for 30 bucks.
Original owner seems like new. Started almost right away. Guess I had a clog in the male fitting keeping fuel from the little motor.

Sounds nice and it's one year prior to the famous/infamous Phasemaker ignition.
