OMC carb rebuild kits

[Randy White, Sr]

Are OMC factory rebuild kits for Evinrude model 7518 (1955 7.5hp) still available?
If not, who offers factory quality kits?  TIA

[RICHARD A. WHITE]

Marineengine.com says this kit is for 1955-1958 7.5 hp motors.

justs be aware some kits  have needle seats that don’t match threads and difficult to install if at all.   just something to keep an eye on

carbs are pretty simple and most of the time a good cleaning will make them work like new. The  floats are frequent problems if cork but even those can be sanded a bit with 150 grain paper and resealed with air plane dope or  thick crazy glue .. carefull with fumes in the eyes and lungs !

I wouldn’t mess with much of the aftermarket stuff, causes much more harm than good.  Sierra kits are safe though, but they don’t come with replacement floats.
