Engine is a 1996 5.7 LX Serial # 0F787870, looking for the correct float settings. Documentation supplied with rebuild kit states different values (11/32 in one place and 7/16 in another) in different places, ?????? :confused: :confused:

Re: Mercruiser Carb float settings

check this link.<br /><br /> http://www.boatered.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=79109 <br /><br /> you will have to register. float setting will vary on needle and seat used. I am fighting a hard start when hot condition due to flooding, i have been advised that the plastic floats can saturate w/ gas and can cause problems using factory settings.<br /><br />good luck
