I have twin 2003 HPDI's. Manufacture dates are 12/02 and 1/03. The engines had 450 hours when I bought the boat. One had 40 hours on a new power head replaced by a Yamaha dealer. At 500 hours I lost a cylinder in the other engine and am having my mechanic install a reman power head from Outboard Recycle who has a great reputation. It had always had a little bit of a rattle at low RPM's. Not sure if it was internal or something else.
I got a very good deal on the boat and was prepared it replace the power head if needed. In general what have you seen on the 250 HPDI remans as far as reliability and durability? They have the Yamaha upgrades/recalls done. I am aware of the need to maintain the engines, filters, VST, non-ethanol, etc.
Thanks in advance.
