More venting here. I called 9 boat parts houses today and 8 of them were closed on Monday. WHAT? How can you do that in this day in age? I cannot find a rebuild kit for this Q-jet to save my life. I am trying to buy locally, but they are making it so hard! I wondered into a NAPA today to get a new headlamp for my work van and just on a whim I said "Do you sell q-jet rebuild kits"? The guy asked me for what.. I replied "a 350 mercruiser" and he proceeded to pull out a NAPA marine book. He then showed me all the stuff I can get through them and I was amazed. You can get all the manifolds, gaskets, distributors, starters, or anything else for these boats there. Who would have thunk!!!! I got almost everything I need and it will be here in the morning. SWEET!!!! Plus they matched west marines prices, and I helped out my local guy.
As far as the jets, I got in touch with marine mechanic today and he said they are the same. I hope he is right.
I was planning on upgrading my points to a petronincs electronic ignition. has anyone used one before?
