* Note: On engines experiencing flooding or rough idle, if all components and specifications are okay, it may be necessary to change to the
spring-loaded needle & seat assembly. Installing a spring loaded needle and seat on a 4-cylinder engine can cause a lean out
condition in extremely hard turns. (GM 153,181 old: Right turn.) (Mercury Marine 224 cid: Left turn.)
Because of this potential lean out condition in extremely hard turns, you should make the boat owner aware of this condition before
installing the spring-loaded needle and seat kit The spring loaded needle and seat kit is the preferred one to use if you have a flooding
problem at idle RPM. See MerCruiser Service Bulletin 97-8 for further information.
