Mercury 8HP 2 Stroke Outboard Engine, Long Shaft with Remotes.
SPARES OR REPAIR
Not sure of age, no tiller handle as has remotes.
A few of us tried to get this started at the club. The electrics turn over the engine no problem but it won't start. New plugs and new fuel with recommended new oil mix. Sparks okay but no fuel is getting to the plugs. Needs possible carb' strip down. It's been sitting unused so carb' jets possibly blocked. Compression was mentioned, not sure about that. There is a small clip which looks like it has lost one of it's lugs to keep the remote rods in place. This may need to be replaced or maybe just jammed in or some other solution/clip if it is needed.
This is a spare engine which we just tried to get going but we do not have room in our garage for both engines after a recent move. This came with our boat when we purchased it and the owner said it ran very smoothly when he bought it.
Comes with user manual, but the stand is not included. Can deliver to Kielder Yacht Club. May delivery to that area for free, possibly Hexham and surrounding area for fuel and deposit.
Any questions please do not hesitate to ask.
