I would go ahead and replace it w/ a new one. Just remember that your boat
carb is not the same as a car carb.
EFI would be great but the cost is not worth it.

Good morning,
I've got a 97 Maxum 2300SC - 5.7/350 Mercruiser Alpha One - 2V TKS Carb.
I
bought the boat used two seasons ago and have been very happy with it
except
for continuing problems with the carburetor. I had it rebuilt last spring
but that only lasted one season and by the end of the year I was again
experiencing low speed engine surges and stalls.
I've heard that the 97 Merc carbs are cheaply made to start with, and you
should just bite the bullet and replace it. So what are my options? Any
recommendations? I've also heard of a trottle body replacement kit from
Merc. Any experience out there?
Thanks,
-Rob
