Friend of mine is looking at a rebuilt 175xp. owner says it was rebuilt at the shop in Florida. Owner is asking 1,500 or o.b.o. Has been rebuilt from top to bottom-lower unit. Not sure if Vro has been removed or not. Owner said it puts out 210 hp after rebuild. Suppose to go with buddy on Saturday and look at it. Owner said it has not been started in less than two years. Besides carbs needing rebuilt is there anything else to throw caution towards? Owner is asking $1,500 for motor and controls. Is mounted on a ragged out Cajun Bass boat and trailer.
I appreciate any thoughts,
Garland
