I am new to this forum and I am amazed on how knowledgable and generous the forum members are. I just purchase a 16" Waccamaw McKee 16 foot boat with this 70 VRO Johnson. Very little info other than it was last registered in 2000 when the motor froze. It has been sitting ever since with the second owner before I bought it. It was a trade for the second owner. He knows little about boats and motors, similair to myself.<br /><br />Questions: <br />Is it worth fixing?<br /><br />Any logical reasons why it froze?<br /><br />What would be the first procedure in determining it's value (to see if it is repairable)?<br /><br />And finally I am new to the 70 Johnson VRO outboard. What does OMC and VRO mean on this 3 cylinder Johnson?<br /><br />After reading a bit through the forums, I am guessing that the oil injection failed (VRO)! <br /><br />Thanks in advance for any help.
