    20 hp electric starter

    Starter tries but it goes zing and then it kicks out. Rope start works. It has 2 wires going to the starter. Is this a bendix or solenoid starter? Can the starter be fixed, or do i need a new starter?

    20HP WMC44 carb

    Motor won't start. When I squeeze fuel line primer bulb, fuel squirts out mixing chamber of carb. Is it supposed to leak out top of cover plate like that? Spurts a little out front of carb when cranking too. Float seems to be OK. Any ideas whats going on?

    Mercury serial number

    The serial number on the 20 hp outboard given to me starts in OT instead of OG. 2002 model 1020301ZD. What is the difference? Was this just an error? It is OT on all locations.
