    Mercury Carb Rebuild Question

    Just finished rebuilding all three carbs on a '98 Mercury Factory Jet 60/45. The motor is actually a 60EO. The carbs have a threaded opening just to the left of the idle adjustment at top right.

    Nauticus Smart Tabs?

    Anyone here ever used Nauticus Smart Tabs on an outboard jet? I'm seriously considering installing a set of the SX type on my boat to see if it would improve the hole shot and reduce the distance require to get on plane. Have seen a lot of positive reviews online about these trim tabs, but...
