    Nothing like an easy repair! Glad it’s up and running!! Yeah, we got snow up here today. It’ll be gone in a couple days but it still showed up. Not looking forward to winter for sure! Cheers, Mark

    Thanks for the video. I've got a 2003 Mercury 40 hp efi that I replaced the high pressure fuel pump in the tank. Does the fuel pressure regulator supposed to have a vacuum hose on it? I don't remember if mine had one on it and I might have buried it behind the tank when reinstalling.

    i have the same problem. pro 170 tracker. i dont think its due to aftermarket parts. i just disassembled mine. its never been taken apart but the float was hitting the seal. i filed it down slightly and hopefully fixed this poor engineering. Im learning mercury hires the same engineering folks Boeing hires

    Ok I see. I have a rough idle and fuel leaks when pumping the bladder. Engine is only 5 years old. I suspect the 10% ethanol additive here in Sweden takes a toll on certain rubber/plastics.
