I have a 1975 Merc 140hp I/O engine. My engine lost compression in a cylinder. I started trying to find another engine for it. It seems all I can locate around here are 120hp merc I/O's.
Is it a direct swap for the 120? Would I notice a whole lot of difference? I am more using my boat for fishing, and not for tube pulling or skiing.
i just would like to know how practical it would be to use a 120hp in place of my 140. Also does everthing swap over between the two?
Then maybe I can rebuild my 140 if it's able to be.
Thank you.
