86 yamaha 150
Hello all,
I am looking for a little info on a 1986 Yamaha 150 motor. I found a boat for sale and I am interested in the motor for my 1974 V20. The motor cosmetically looks poor but it seems to run well on muffs. The compression is between 110 and 115 on all cylinders. The big problem is the shift shaft is corroded and very weak so I cant water test it. I guess this is a fairly common problem for these motors and I feel I can fix it. The motor is a salt water motor and is has corrosion on the block and hardware. The motor is on a 1987 proline 23ft walk around which is in good shape except for the seats and wood trim. I had thought about keeping the boat for strictly a fishing boat and using my 82 V20 as a family cruiser and looking for another motor for my 74. I don't know...Anyway the guy is asking $2000.00 for everything is it worth it or should I keep looking? Thanks...
