E-Tec or Optimax. Repower HELP!!!

[randlemanboater]

A wise man on this forum once said "only own a 2 stroke dfi if it's under warranty."

It was either Spare or Ferm.

Get a 4 stroke!

Humm.....4 stroke motors have more moving parts and require more service than an Etec but are somehow much better ?
Hey.....whatever floats ones boat .....
Four stroke technology continues to evolve better and better but a good motors a good motor.

I’ve had a bunch of outboards - all 2 strokes, Merc and Rude .....everyone one was fine guess just lucky .

consider the only market Bombarier is using 2 stroke in are outboards, they are 4 stroke across the board(jet skis, ATVs, Side by sides, snow mobiles, aircraft, etc...) except for some limited production trials bikes. 4 stroke will be taking over E-tec soon
