76 Merc 1500 question

[ADCTD2H2O]

Does anyone know where i can find throttle couplers for this engine as my local supplier has had me waiting for three weeks on back order and tells me today that now they are discontinued and they can't get them for me.

Just for further description they are the pieces that connect the carbs together and allow for syncronizing the carbs.

Thanks for any help.

You may try crowleymarine.com or Dougrussell.com. A junk yard is another place to try.

These were very common to Merc inline motors. You should be able to get them easy.
Is your local supplier a Merc Dealer?

Wow crowley did not have them either but they took some time searched around and found a marina that had them in stock and gave me the contact info for that marina, parts are on the way.

I knew you guys would be able to show me the right resources thank you.
