Honestly, the thing looks beat to sh!t, but if I can get him below $3,000 I think there’s something there. Says the trailer is rusty but roadworthy. He’s about an hour from me.

Decent motor, I have a 150 same series, on my Sea Hunt and it runs well. Ditch the oil injection, replace the fuel pump with a pro marine setup. Optic eye ignition works great till it doesn't. Biggest issue with those motors are the carburetors, they are plastic bodies, they warp easily, especially with heavy handed mechanics( dont ask), new ones are not available, have not been for a while. You can get new bowls for them. If it runs well, idles good, you're probably OK with it. Personally, Id rather have a Merc.
