I just bought a 1989 Mariner 75hp triple. Is this engine built by Merc? I know sometime back there in the past, Mariners were Japanese. Also, any problems unique to these that I ought to worry about? I have worked with OMC V4s a good bit, but this'll be my first Merc/Mariner newer than the mid-70s.<br /><br />Thanks!

Your engine should be the same as the Merc. No problems far as I know.<br /><br />TMD

Hi Ledgefinder,I have the exact year and model motor.I've had it now for two summers and have not encountered anything major other than some fuel related problems which I easily solved by reading past posts It's incredible how helpful this board is to so many folks.<br />Walt.
