150 hp force help

[zoomin31]

I have a problem and I am looking for a little help as I dont know much about boats. I have a 150 hp force and I can only get it to run for about 10 secounds before it dies again. So I figured the previous owner did a bad job of winterizing and the carbs are all gunked up. I have been looking for a carb kit but have no clue what one I need, I pulled all the numbers I could find on this motor did some research and I still have no clue what year this motor is or what carb kit I need. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Like I was saying I don't know what year it is. Is the carb kit the same for all years. It has three carbs

Re: 150 hp force help

Have you been able to find the model and serial numbers?

820576A1 is the Mercury part number for the carb kit, is being sold as the only carb kit available for 1989 thru 1994 150 hp motors. So there is likely going to be some extra parts in the kit.
