Default New Carburetor
Hello guys,

In continuation of :

Maxum SCR 2300 4.3 Mercruiser 175hp not revving more than 3000-3500 RPM

I finally gave up, the actual carb is working as intended, but I just could not make it work 100% while idling.

I bought a rochester 2BBL from ebay that should arrive next month.

I have a question for you guys, do you know if the rochester 2bbl will fit on my original fuel line for the Mercarb ?

I’m not sure if the fuel inlet is in the same location on both carburetors.
