when we use to see alot of the mechanical fuel pumps / impeller housing set ups after merc got rid of the lower drain plug below the fill plug. We use to do the same drill at the bottom - tap for threads and install a bolt & gasket that can be taken out with a box end wrench or a small socket...
Thanks I have the paper temps as well. One of the issues here is we have very poor glass shops - the transom redos and their cut outs are not good or need a total cut out again after the fact. Anyways, I do not do glass nor will I ever - but have and still do many engine R & R s especially...

A little info about the MERCRUISER IAC for all...

If you need someone to work on your boat engine side / maintenance side in Havasu - I can refer you to a person that I know personally and is Master Cert for Merc outboards and Mercruiser and Yamaha. Promise this is not some hack nor NON oem trained craigslist marine tech. As mentioned he is...
