Hello, my first post; I recently bought a 1998 Lowe Jon Boat with a 98 Merc (40 hp, 2 stroke, 3 cylinder, SN 74587X).
I'm in the process of discovery and getting the motor updated with all the essential services.
Wanting to do as much of the work for myself as possible; matching part numbers with my motor seems to be very challenging....I absolutley hate ordering the wrong parts.
Finding a supporting vendor is #2 on my list.
The motor runs pretty good, I have a maintenance book & fuel pump kit on order, but I cannot find the proper water impellar kit or spark plug wires. I heard the overheat alarm beep yesterday when I was picking up my duck decoys in a murky slough.... The plug wires look original.
Any info would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Dom
