Problem staritng my Sport Jet 120. Just had carbs rebuilt just purchased it. Runs flawless after it gets started. Or after it has been started the first time. I can see no fuel start circuit or Choke? Does this need a primer installed? anyone have this problem? Thanks Guess i should have stayed with the omc jet.

Re: mercury sport jet No CHoke?

Mercury utilizes different choke systems on various models. What does the manual say?<br /><br />Mine has an electric choke, where ignition has to be swithed on (key click one), then the key has to be pushed a few seconds (feeds extra fuel to the carbs) before the key is finally turned to crank the engine. Works fine. One very cold days a little throttle (gear disengaged) may be needed.

Can't say what you have - only that several systems exist.<br /><br />Your manual certainly tells about (cold-)starts.
