Hey Guys,
Merc 260, I went to try to take the nut off where the steel gas line connects to the carb to change the filter in there (or see if there was one there and put one in if not) but couldn't get that nut to thread out. It would turn a little but didn't start to thread out of the carb body at all. Is there a trick to getting this nut off? Do you have to first disconnect the gas line that threads into the other side of the nut? Need a special wrench?
Assuming I get it out and in should I put some teflon tape on it when it goes back on?
Appreciate the help.
Thanks,
Billy
