I'm considering buying a mid seventies 50hp Mercury locally but I have a couple questions I like to ask you first.
Are there any "problem areas" on this motor I should be concerned with? If no, were they generally a good design and fairly reliable?
Last question, Anyone have a ballpark guestimate as to what they might weigh? (Mid 70's 50hp short shaft that was running well before being stored three years ago is all the info I have, sorry.)
Thank you very kindly in advance for any help folks.
