Just bought a 2005 pontoon with a 4 stroke 115 hp Mercury on it and I am having a couple of problems/questions. Not many outboard mechanics around me so thanks for the help. The motor starts first time every time with a flick of the switch, no choke needed nor pumping of the ball on the fuel...
I need someone to recommend a marine motor company close to South Carolina where I can get a remanufactured 4.3l for my 1999 pontoon. I cracked the block in my original motor in the Spring and am looking to get it fixed. Thanks for the help.
