Yep, that be a looper. The 93+ are good engines, some of the most releiable. But they were also the thirstiest 200/225's that OMC built(the old 235 still reigns as king of the fuel hogs). Solid engine though, one of the ones you can count on to get you home. Just have to watch out for block rot in em. They are the closed deck blocks and are known to rot around the cylinder walls behind the head gaskets. This is why my 98 now has a 92 powerhead on it, one of the PO's had swapped them out most likely due to rot.

It would burn more. A 93+ 200/225 looper will burn on average 15-18 GPH, whereas the 88-92's used 13-16 from what I have read. The early small bore motors 85-87 were the best burning roughly 11-15 GPH at cruise from reports I have read.

MJ, if I had time, I'd be more than happy to go look at it for you, but unfortunatly, I don't. Call them, get some info, if it sound good, I might be able to find someone down that way
