150 carb motor, don't get much better than this one for reliability. This was arguably the toughest JOHNSON ever built.

Re: not an etecb but....
 

he keeps lowering that starting bid, started at 6500. i dont think this motor is real. i think this guy just knows that i am broke rite now and is tryin to mess with me!

i plan on repowering with an etec this winter after we done building the house and i dont have to pay rent or 250 dollar electric bills anymore. but i would gladly take this instead and walk with an extra 5 or 6 thousand dollars gas money.

Those ARE great motors. I got a buddy that just repowered an old Mako with one just like it. 8)

Re: not an etecb but....
 

are they good on gas?

Re: not an etecb but....
 

Simple answer, NO! Most say they burn 12-14 GPH at a 4000RPM cruise. My 140 looper burns 8 at 4000.

who cares about gas!! I love to get that baby!! Thats a awsome deal!!

Re: not an etecb but....
 

They aint the best on fuel, but they sure are reliable. That is one engine that you shouldn't ever have to worry about gettin you home.

Re: not an etecb but....
 

You can buy a lotta gas on the money you'll save ... heck, 20 years from now there won't be any gas, so it won't matter ;D ;D ;D ...
