My outboard dilema is almost over... After having read every post on 2 vs 4-stroke and evaluating prices I had decided to buy a 2-stroke Suzuki 30hp (Mostly because of price). Then, I stumbled upon a used BF30 long shaft, pull start. They normally run at $5000 (cdn) and I found a demo with a full 2-year warantee for $3800.<br /><br />The sting is that this engine, I found on a website from an apparently legit marina 500 miles away! I can't see the engine but have the option of not accepting the delivery if it is damaged on arrival.<br /><br />My question is : since this motor has been run, I have no way of knowing the number of hours or how it was run. Is there a risk of internal damage from improper running? (Remember, it has the full warantee) Have I just found an incredible deal? Or is there more than meets the eye? Or what could I check for or ask for before they ship it all the way across Ontario.
