WANTED
A bit of a long shot, but thought I'd ask.
Has any one got in their spares/junk box a complete twin needle carb for a Merco 61 MkIV; choke bore 7.25mm and spigot diameter 11.8mm.
Thanks.

Jackdaw,

I confess to not being very clued up on the different Mks of Merco 61 but there seem to be at least two different twin needle carbs. I don't know if it has the carb you are looking for but this appeared on ebay today at quite a low "Buy it now" price.......

Saw that Paul. But, the throttle barrel location screw is sheared off and the whole engine looks to be a 'bitsa'. It has the later separate cooling jacket and liner(earlier models had a one piece steel unit) and the earlier thinner crankshaft. Which probably means an earlier crankcase with the smaller carb.

Hello from Canada jackdaw

Some Merco stuff was listed today on RC Canada
https://www.rccanada.ca/rccforum/showth ... p?t=578403

You might have to register to bid which cost nothing and is not a big deal.

Prices shown are in Canadian $$ which are not worth much!!

Hope the link works.
