Re: carb repair kits for mer 200 horse

Are you sure you need to rebuild? Are the jets, needles, etc.. damaged? Before spending money on exspensive parts, I would recommend doing a carb cleaning and reassembling with all new gaskets. If you haven't done it before it is farily straightfoward. If you don't have a manual to walk you through it, i would be happy to. But, for the carb cleaner get the stuff you can buy by the gallon at any good automotive store. Then soak/inundate the carbs with the cleaner for ~5 minutes, rinse in water, and then blow all the parts completely dry with compressed air.<br /><br />Good luck-<br />andy
