That does not sound like fun at all. I am afraid if i just bought a new motor i would find someway to be the first one to start it. Even if i have to super glue the key to my hand.

It's all about the warranty. Think of how many people out there who will start a new engine without double checking everything. And in all reality, most outboards are ran before they leave teh factory now. I know BRP runs every ETEC at the factory to make sure they dyno high enough and everything is up to par before it ever goes into a shipping crate. If you want to be the first to start it, then your going to have to build it yourself.

I would think...and HOPE all outboard mfgrs start and run their motors on completion...would be disappointed to find one that didn't...and if it's a matter of jeopardizing the warranty...here's the key Mr Tech..have at it...I'll have lots of opportunities down the road...

the f150 is a sweet motor. If you need a hand with the command link setup or anything just let me know. I deal with that stuff on a daily basis. What dealer are you gonna use? I work for a Yamaha dealer also.

Comstock is good peeps, worked my Honda last year. Where in kettle creek are you? My slip is on kettle creek!

I am back in Shore Acres, north side of Kettle creek right just passed the Shore Acres Yacht club at the end of drum point. There's a V20 that looks just like yours on the island where my slip is, thought maybe it was you!

Parrot Barnegat and any of you other guys give me a PM with your cell name and real name so I can put that fishing boating list together this week and get it out to everyone.
