[QUOTE="Whoopbass, post: 147681, member: 2243"] Prices vary widely throughout the country. That motor might be worth $250 in my area but $500 in yours. If the motor has good compression and spark then it will probably run with a carb cleaning. Compression should be 100+ psi for each cylinder and no more then a 10% difference in compression for each cylinder. Drain the lower unit and check for metal and water which shouldn't be there. If there is any paint peeling on the rear or sides of the block it might indicate the motor has overheated in the past. If the motor checks out and the appearance is good offer the guy $200-$300. You be the judge on how high you want to go since your the only one here that knows what it looks like. [/QUOTE]
