Just sitting around wondering, could I swap out a 150 EFI on my 1997 181 Champ (new Coosa transom) to the new 175 pro xs. I know I should do the 150 but taking the cowl off to check the oil is a game changer. All the 175s and up you have the access panel to check the oil. Also Im not convinced that 4 cylinders don't have to work harder than my 6 cylinders over the long term. My 1997 Merc EFI still runs great (64mph) on Wednesday, but if I keep the boat I would like to go to the new 4 stroke. It would be about 68 lbs heavier, but I could change the batteries to Lithium and you do get rid of the oil tank, which would make the weight lower than now. Your thoughts would be great.
