    Carb parts question

    I have a 1979 75hp Evinrude outboard that I had taken from Arizona to Colorado and had to change the 3 carb jets to ones for a higher altitude.

    79 Evinrude 75hp outboard with tilt/trim.

    While going through and replacing the deck/carpet on my 81 Kayot pontoon boat, I thought I would replace wiring. The worst is the tilt/trim wiring. The 3 wire cable comes out of the top of the tilt/trim motor but while inspecting it at the motor and taking the top plate off the motor, the...
