I’ve secured a ‘96 DT200 EFI for $600 delivered to my house. No controls, wiring has been cut about 4 ft from the motor, I’m told compression is good and it starts but have not confirmed yet in person. The owner states he purchased it for his boat when he thought his Merc was not repairable but repaired the Merc and doesn’t need it.
He’s the second owner and the original owner stated it sat for 8 years due to a bad transom on his rig but ran fine prior.
I don’t know any other details really.
Is this a good motor? I’ve never had a Zuk. Is the price right? Anything to be concerned about? If it doesn’t run is it easy to work on or find parts (I can work on all other brand outboards).
