Does anyone know if there is supposed to be a vacuum line connected to a 85 Mercarb? I have a 2.5 120 horse Mercruiser that the acceleration pump is not working and noticed there is no vacuum line connected.

Welcome to iboats. :) The answer is no vacuum line. Is the accelerator pump rod hooked up?....JK

I'm not sure as I am new to this. Can you shed any light on this for me? Thanks for the feedback!

Re: Mercarb Vacuum

There are two rods, one for the choke and one for acc. pump. If it has become disconnected somehow it would cause it not to work. It may just need to be rebuilt....JK
