[QUOTE="Bobg, post: 187118, member: 4992"] If you find a motor you want to look at, be sure to check the compression on each cylinder. All should be over 100#'s and close to equal to each other. By close to each other, I mean compression within a couple of #'s of each other. Hear it run and be sure you have spark on all cylinders. Check the lower unit oil for water in it. That can be an expensive fix. [/QUOTE]
