I recently acquired a 20 hp mariner outboard for around 200 bucks. I am pretty sure its early 90's era.
I havent had too much experience working on marine outboards so i took it somewhere to get straightened out. They ended up having
to put a new choke on, rebuild the carburetor, replace a metal gasket and replace the pull rope for a whopping 470 bucks.
so i now have around 670 into it but it runs like a top. is this a half way decent deal? I also have a 15 hp Yamaha that has never had to be serviced because it was taken care of and that engine was around 2000 in 1989 and that's about the only price i have to go on.
opinions?
