I have been told that the carburator for the 7.5 hp Mercury out board is no longer made and it is almost impossable to find one. Is this true? Are there any avalible substutes for this carburator?

An outboard mechanic told me that the carburator for the 7.5 hp Mercury outboard was not made any more. I just wanted to know if that was really true. The Ser No on my motor is 633594. I cant find on any of the cros over charts. Can you tel me what year it is?
