Rusty been thinking bout repowering. Maybe. 1st I had new Lightning l/u put on last year. Motor runs strong. Mostly looking for better fuel economy. This weekend I dropped 200 rpms with no clue to why? Nothing seems off. Any quick suggestions before I get it looked at. A few questions on getting new one. Do you take trades on outboards when purchasing new one? Currently have carbbed 225 HO. Boat is rated for 250HP. Looking for as much or more power as I have now and possible better fuel economy? Would E-tec be good option? What would you recommend and what would it cost. E-mail is Savwork58@alltel.net if you want to send private e-mail
