[QUOTE="Tim Murphy, post: 414693, member: 9229"] Dear 63monark, If you think you'll never need more than a 6 HP motor for the rest of your life then it makes sense to buy a new one. I doubt you think that though? Depending on where you live it's not hard to find good running well maintained 1970's and early 1980's vintage used 5 and 6 HP engines from every manufacturer imaginable for $ 300.00 to $ 500.00 every day on Craigslist. I think used is definitely the way to go. Regards, Tim Murphy :D [/QUOTE]
