After serving time sitting in the co-pilot's seat when bass fishing, I've decided to purchase my first bass boat. The boat I'm looking at has the motor that I listed in the subject, but I can't seem to find much information about the quality/dependability of this motor. The owner says there haven't been any problems as does the mechanic that's always serviced it. Can anyone provide any insight, positive or negative, as to whether or not this is a good motor? <br />Thanks!

Howdy, Fishbio.<br /><br />Is this engine carbureted (good) or FICHT direct fuel injected (MUCH less good)?<br /><br />If the man is telling the truth about no problems there is probably nothing to worry about. On the other hand, what evidence can he supply to support his statement?<br /><br />Red sky at night. . .<br />JB :)
