[QUOTE="Rumbles1960, post: 71444, member: 1119"] Like I mentioned in another post I have purchased a 1448 Tracker Grizzly my intention is to resist those beautiful new 4 strokes with power trim and electric start ( I didn't even now you could get a tiller with power trim) and buy a used motor. I have to say it scares me a bit buying used, I don't want a project motor so I thought I would pose the question how successful has your used engine purchase been, do they usually work out to be good motors with lots of life left? Would you insist on listening to a used outboard before buying it? Late model used outboards seem to command big bucks so how old should I consider going? Is there anything in particular I should watch out for? [/QUOTE]
