How do fix a carb in a mercury 1500 outboard boat motor?

Question

I am leaking gas from my mercury 1500 outboard motor. I was told its the carb but I cant find anyone to ttouch it for under 300 dollars. Can anyone tell me how to fix it my self or give me a link on how to fix it?

Answer 1

If it's just a leaking gasket, any boat dealer can usually get you a rebuild kit for under $20 per carb.
