I have a 2001 Optimax 225 (0T333823) that I took to the dealer to get trade in apprasial and they wont touch it due to compression numbers.
1-100 2-105 3-110 4-115 5-95 6-105 motor has 479 hrs
They did not do a leak down test. Motor is all original except for they updated thermostats and plugs and water pump have been changed every year and ran with Dons cocktail every tank. Motor still runs great but had a slight occasional miss at idle things the reeds may be chipped if that helps anyone.
When i bought the boat in 2011 it had 234 hrs and comp numbers were
1-92 2-91 3-97 4-101 5-88 6-93
The dealer now is saying i need a new powerhead and quoted me 7000 bucks for it. I have no idea on how much a new powerhead should cost to do
Thanks in advance. I am looking at trading or selling to get a newer boat.
