I have a 1989 Force outboard and it came from an elevation of 10,000 ft and I will be running it at 2,000 ft. How do I know if it is jetted for the higher elevation and if so where can I find jets for Minnesota elevation?

My son said it came from the Co Rockies. I'm assuming it came from about 5600 ft

If your really not sure where it came from???
It could be originally it was bought in Md.??
You need to take the middle carb apart and check the jet that's there.
Then compare it to a parts diagram.
F10212
MAIN FUEL JET (.074) SEA LEVEL - 2500 FT.

- F10213
072) 2500 - 5000 FT.

- F10214
070) 5000 - 7500 FT.

- F10215
068) 7500 - 10,000 FT.
These #s are from boats . net
Compare to what you find in the middle carb or which ever is taken off.
