Hi Steplift20 - I saw you were interested in parts for vintage 1980's Mercury 150 but the seller has not responded. I have not posted them for sale here but I have various parts for 2 Mercury 150's from the '80s. Wondering were you live if you are interested - I am in CT near Mystic - Regards...
I have a bunch of parts from my '78 that I scrapped last year. Bow rail, rod boxes, helm, cleats, fuel tank, cushions, windshield, rod holders. What are you looking for?
Bill,
Where in RI are you? I'm in Stonington CT and have a 1978 V20 steplift cuddy sitting on a 2012 Loadrite dual axle trailer. It currently does not have a motor which is why it has been in my yard for a few years. I have been debating if I should sell the boat. Let me know if you are...
I was helping my neighbor repair a shifting issue which turned out to be corrosion between the double O-rings on the shift shaft. The shift shaft was completely removed during the repair and we kind of took a best guess at the height for the reinstallation. I think we are really close because...

I have a 25" mercury 150 engine and a 20" mercury 150 HP parts engine. Same vintage so most parts are interchangeable. I am trying to remove the 5" extension from the 25" engine exhaust tube and it does not seem to move at all. I don't want to break or damage anything, - so what is the trick...
I can get some pics - but I don't have any now. I expected all the water to come out the top (discharge) of the pump, but water was coming out the from where the pump halves meet. There seems to be a slot in the lower pump housing that would allow water to run out. Is it normal for water to...
I have been having cooling issues on my 1988 mercury 150hp and have been eliminating issues one by one, but today I came across something I thought was odd and wonder if anyone else has experienced it too. So I dropped the lower unit and hooked up the water muffs to the intakes just to see how...
I had pulled my lower unit yesterday and realized the water tube came out of the upper part of the engine. I was able to feed it back up and get it back in right spot and it will stay there on its own, but it falls out too easily. Has anyone else had this issue? How is the water tube attached...
I got mine a few years ago from here:

It is local to me in Connecticut so I drove down and he let me tool around his boneyard and find one and remove it. He charged me around $5.
I know he ships parts all over, not sure if he has a minimum $$ value.

Can I replace a 1 piece head with a two piece head on similar engines. The heads (2 piece) on my older engine are in better shape than the heads that are on the current engine (1 piece). One shop where I buy parts says it is OK and the other shop says don't do it. (Both shops of course have...
There is so much wrong with this law - I can't even start to intelligently discuss it I am so mad and frustrated. I had spoken to each of my local politicians. They both said they would not vote for this bill. The state Senator was a man of his word and did not. Kudos to him. The State...
By this time tomorrow I will be considered a felon in this state's eyes.
They are pushing this through by Ecert - emergeny certification, drafted today - vote tomorrow. No public hearing. No one can find the actual language of the bill to read ahead.
I had interviewed at Alabama shipyard...
