    Greetings.....

    Just bought my first Merc yesterday. Its an 86 with the 302. Has a few issues here and there but all in all she's a good ride. Looking forward to chatting with you all, and hopefully figuring out any issues I come across with your help.

    Take it easy...If its easy take it twice!!

              Thanks for the warm welcome. She has 105,000 miles on her. I sorted out the rough idol problem I was having after a quick search on the forum (damn salt and pepper shakers). I had an 88 Town Car a few years back before some asshole drunk driver wiped out the whole right side and pretty much totaled it. So Im pretty familiar with the 302 and most of the body and electrical problems that may come up. Im glad to be back in another land yacht now though!!

              I got to give he a good bath and Ill post a picture soon!!
