I have a 140, 3.0L 1986 Mercruiser engine. Wiring up the throttle cables after an engine pull and transom restore accidentally pushed the lever the wrong direction and it jumped its fitting inside the carb. I have not opened it up yet but would like to source that parts. My 25. Accelerator Pump Lever does not seem to be stripped.

I'm looking to purchase 16. Pump Shaft & Lever Assembly
Mercarb Marine Carburetor Exploded View | Mikes Carburetor Parts
I'm also guessing i would need a gasket, should i rebuild the whole thing while I'm at it or avoid possible trouble?
Any other advice would be appreciated.
Thanks Again!

From what I recall you can't really get many separate gaskets for the Mercarb if that's what you have there (according to the local marine place anyways). If it runs fine... do what you like. Its quite easy to replace the part you mention without disturbing anything (just take the top cover off and that's it. If ya wanna clean it up and rebuild it more power to ya. I did mine, even though all it probably really needed was an accelerator pump. It wasn't all too bad in my opinion and that was my first real carb rebuild.
