I have a 1990 Johnson 90hp outboard that lost power while at WOT pulling someone on a tube....i shut it down then it would not start at all...... This thing ran great until then. I bought the boat used from someone and never had anything checked other than compression which was good...it sat all winter outdoors and finally i had scrounged up some money to have it looked at and the mechanic said that the motor is seized and that he could not even get to break loose.....my mechanic said that it would take an engine rebuild at a cost of at least $1500.....does anyone have an idea of what the problem is and if its worth fixing?
