    Block off kit for merc 2stroke.. Explain

    Any tell tale signs of it running hot? Like rough idle or anything? Still runs super strong on top and also is running better at idle than its really ever been. How can I check the temp because I have no gauge

    Block off kit for merc 2stroke.. Explain

    So you mean a hole as in where it sits? It sits in this plastic tray that has straps that hold the pump on.. So I could just unhook it and fuel line the tank directly to the motor if I don't wanna remove it?
