I just bought a 99 mercury efi 150
OG802643.
I bought a used mercury service manual from ebay at a great deal but it says OT409000 and up.
My question is how much was changed from 99 to he 02 in the efi 2.5 L engines?
Should I be okay or do I need to look for a 1999?
Thanks

I won't swear to it, but I do believe that there has been enough changes/redesigns that if you can find one at a fair price I'd get it.

Do you have a manual for your efi 200 basscat?

I think there were actually a good bit of changes from your model year to the 02, I would find the right one.

I do have one for my '99, but not here at the house. I'll get it and get the manual info from it, it should be the same one you need.

I have a Mercury manual part # 90-824052R3. You should be able to find the part number for the manual you need in the Mercury parts list for your motor. I think it's under service in the parts list.
It was for a motor I sold with serial number 0G571537.
Blackwoodz- provide the part number of the manual you have.
If you would, please take a moment to review the Forum Announcements, specifically as regards the "bay".

Since there are significant differences in the powerhead, ignition and fuel systems, you'll want to obtain the correct manual for your engine.Originally Posted by Blackwoodz
824052R3 is the correct manual for your engine.

Steve keep in mind a lot of Pros on this site contribute valuable information to us daily, they are valuable resources to us when we are in trouble. They do not get paid for this. Asking them to help identify your parts requirements and providing technical support is like a slap in the face when you go else where for purchases. They never will say what I just stated, they are much better than that, Kinda like I will buy steak at Walmart and ask a top chef at outback how to cook it or which cut to buy.
Not criticizing you as most do not really realize this. I am not in the Marine business as I am a automotive Tech and I see this all the time, I know how it feels. Just trying to help offer a little understanding, I am not trying to make you feel bad. I have been guilty of this in the past and I should know better. Unless I am pressed for time and must buy locally I will use European Marine for parts. You cant expect them to provide support for internet business that will try to undermine them
Please keep in mind most internet sites do not offer this kind of great support
I hope I did not overstep in this post

Thank You Leon Pugh
My apologies for hurting feelings.
If I could afford steak...I wouldn't be eating bologna.
I work extremely hard for everything I have and respect anyone else that does also.
I'll never stop looking for the most economical way to get what I want. I just don't have that luxury.
I'll just lurk from now on....and Google my own questions.
Have a nice day

Blackwoodz, I don't think it was about hurting feelings. I am somewhat in the same boat as you however Don has the right to make the rules as he sees fit. As far as I know the rule about the "Bay" is just in the Mercury forums. So in the open Mercury forums we have to not mention certain sources. I don't think there is any prohibition in PMs.
It is a small price for the wealth of information here.
The “bay” issue is also about parts being bought off bay type places not being OEM parts or not being sure they are OEM parts. Therefore, if the part is being used and someone here is helping to diagnose an issue, an unverified part is just another problem that can cause issues with the diagnosis. If the part is bought from an authorized Mercury dealer then the part should be the a good/right part. Makes diagnostics easier. What happened to you is the exact same thing that could happen with an actual part, a dealer would know what the correct part would be.

We're happy to assist where you purchase the correct parts through ANY Authorized Mercury Dealer. While we are always happy to assist folks with Parts, it's impractical for everyone to purchase parts from us. That being said, it's just not productive to buy the wrong items on the "bay" and then expect free support to help correct the "wrong" here.
Again- glad to help where we can, within reason.

Yep, and Don helped you with information so you could get the correct one based on your engine serial number. Good folks here willing to help others.
