    WHERE IS THE BEST PLACE TO LOOK FOR A USED 225?

    Trying to find a used motor but can't seem to find one? Looking for a used Mercury 225 with low/med hours. Fairly new as in 2003 or newer. Any help would be great guys. Thanks in advance.

    Drop me an email.... I'll be glad to check the CPO (Certified Pre-Owned) list.

    Billy,
    It has a between 600-700 hrs. I was hooked up to a laptop by a merc tech, and it had 533 hrs on it then. That was about 9 months ago.

    After that I put new tach with hr meter on it and I think it shows 80 hrs right now.

    I posted about this motor a while back and I believe you posted back to me. It was the one about shaking between 1500-1900 rpm.

    Seems like it is a characteristic of these EFI's. Other than that, this motor runs perfect. It is on a 23 sport ProLine, and will run 49 knots.

    I'm going to a 300
