    Dealers are the only people who have access to TSB.

    In some circumstances, you may find some applicable Service Bulletins in the Parts Catalog (on our website). This is a feature of Mercury's incoming data (not of our site).

    Normally they are distributed to only dealers and manufacturers.

    Im wondering why the public does not have access to the tsb information like the auto industry has.

    It's called transparency. It's a bad word in the Marine world.
