Engine replaced in boat
Bigbuddy:
The engine was replaced in a boat that I recently purchased, and I'm not sure what the engine came out of... The number on the carb is: 17085008...
I am also hoping to find a choke replacement kit for this.( cover,spring,gasket, clips,screws)

That carb is off a 1985 OMC 4.3L 262cid Marine Engine.
Also, are you wanting to do a E/C conversion or stay with the Hot Air choke?

Cliff should have what you need for the choke. As for your other question, are you asking what the engine came out of or what the carb came off of? In that case, I answered that above. :)

Thanks for the reply...
I was actually thinking that the engine may have come from a road vehicle, because of some of the components on the engine...(not marine)...
As for the choke, I was hoping to stay with hot air... you can't beat automatic, when things are adjusted correctly...

What is the code on the deck pad? If a Chevy engine, should be near the passenger side head (front).
I believe your carb is a 2GC and that, Cliff, would have the parts needed. If not, what about this:
