Well, it's official. The number 6 cylinder has blown. No warranty. Anyways, if anyone knows where to find a REASONABLE price on a re-man powerhead, please let me know. Thanks in advance.

SAM HOW MANY HOURS DID YOU HAVE ON HER WHEN SHE BLEW? JUST CURIOUS BECAUSE I'M IN THE SAME BOAT 05 250 XS NO WARRANTY BUT SHE STILL RUNNING.DONS THE MAN SURE HE WILL TAKE CARE OF YOU BEEN THERE FOR ME QUITE A FEW TIMES.
Well, seeing how I don't have any smartcraft guages or anything similar (unfortunate, but have learned my lesson), I really don't know. I just know that Bass Pro quoted me at $6600 for parts and labor on a re-man. Oh, and if you don't have smartcraft, get it. Still not sure what caused it. I have it parked here at the house right now. I am going to find the best deal I can (with a warranty) before she goes anywhere.

I HAVE 314 HOURS ON MINE 2LOWER UNITS TRIM SEALS AND A STARBOARD HEAD BUT OVERALL BEEN A GOOD MOTOR
I have the same motor, year, and same number 6 fail at 188hrs. i had eric simon rebuild my motor. he also included the flywheel mod, balance and blue print, and year warranty. i have put about 100hrs on the rebuild w/o any trouble. he is an honest guy that knows his way around a merc. check him out, he is a sponsor of bbc. good luck.
Don, Eric, or Wayne Worthy @ Hydro Tec can all take care of you exceptionally well. Stay with these guys and you'll be in very good hands with others???????
That just plain sucks. Sorry. I am doing mine now. What is with these motors????? Soooo many I have heard of lately.
