[QUOTE="onthewater102, post: 365365, member: 13702"] I've got an '84 Mariner 20, I believe the line was mostly the same from back when thru the late 90's whether you had a merc or a mariner, same knob setup etc. - but at least on my motor there isn't a connection from the choke to the butterfly. When I rebuilt the carb I noticed the choke is actually a secondary gas feed to the carb that is filled by pulling the choke handle out which depresses a sprung valve and allows gas into the chamber. You hear a hiss of gas when you pull the choke, one is all you need, any more and you'll flood it - all throttle control is done via the tiller handle. [/QUOTE]
