    225 Pro XS issues

    Have there been many issues with the 225 Pro XS? Is there a certain year that should be avoided? I'm looking at a new motor that has a vin # 1B349204 but I do not know what year it is.

    The 225 ProXS has been a very solid engine.... one of the best "bang for the buck" models Mercury has offered (IMHO).

    That particular engine was manfactured in 3/2006
