Hello everyone. I recently purchased a Cobra/Bayliner boat with a 1990 force 150 on it. Picked up the boat (good condition), with motor and trailer for a good deal. However, I brought it to the marina for a once over and the mechanics said I need a Stator(quoted $500) and a CDI pack(quoted $485) in order for it to run correctly. The previous owner had the lower unit replaced, Powerhead rebuilt, and Tilt and trim done 3 yrs prior. Compressions are 148,135,120,135,140. My question is should I spend the $1000 or am I wasting my time. The Marina Has a mariner 135(1994 I believe) rebuilt and is asking 2500 for it installed. Any advice would be appreciated. Also if I do repower, I have a force engine available with a good powerhead, lowerunit, prop and most electronics up for grabs. Your thoughts and input would be truely appreciated. Thanks.
