I need to replace my motor, cracked block. Had a 94 115 Merc looking at a 2002 Yam 115 TLRA. Please, anyone who has run or worked on these what are the good and bad? Anything I should watch, look for, ask before I make this large investment would be appreciated.

I had a 115 Yamaha 2 stroke for several years with no problems at all, but before you buy it, run the motor on the lake/river for an hour or more to check starting, idle, trolling speeds, wide open throttle, should run clean and strong at all RPM's. If it's a saltwater motor, maybe go find a similar freshwater motor. Good Luck!
