Hi,i didnt do my homework before purchasing a slightly used tohatsu m15a three days ago. The problem is that the needle and seat needs to be replaced,it didnt help just rinse it out. But new parts to this outboard is not available. Its very sad beacause its bearly used since 1981,painting on sylinderblock and around is like 100% new. Does someone know if i can use another carb that will fit bolt-on, wich has new parts available easly? Or does someone know, someone that have some unused parts lying around?

Hope for a quick answer from u with nowledge.

Sorry some bad grammer:)

The M15A is a very old and obsolete model, better ask Internet Outboards if mechanically same, if not, will need to look at boat yards and buy second hand. A pity that such near mint oldie must be grounded for just 2 small & simple carb parts.

Can you remove the seat out on that model or it's cast on carb ? If removable could make one at a machine shop and try to match a equivalent needle and adjust float height if needed.
