I've got an '88 Merc 60hp that's available for parts if anyone needs anything mechanical. Powerhead has 125psi compression on each cylinder but the reed valves are an issue and the whole thing needs to be torn down to reach them, hence me parting ways with it. I tossed the ignition system after failing to ID gremlins in it, though I've still got the flywheel (not the glued magnet type) and linkages etc. along with a new in box rectifier that wasn't eligible for return with the rest of the new ignition components I sent back.
Starter and ignition solenoid work fine.
Carburetors and fuel pump were rebuilt over the summer and are good to go with new fuel lines between them. I have 2 new spare coupling assemblies which are discontinued by Mercury (p/n 60292A 1) that I'm going to sell on ebay for the $40 ea I paid for them unless someone wants one. Choke solenoid works without issue.
Lower unit is solid with a brand new impeller.
No power tilt/trim, but I rebuilt the pivot with new seals and it's perfectly fine.
Wiring harness is clean and uncut.
