Re: Looking for a new engine for my 87 V20.
PC,
From what I've heard they're no different that car dealers if that tells you anything. You're better off trying to sell it via Craigslist or Ebay. I would think You should get a good price for it. Yamahas are a well respected brand.

Re: Looking for a new engine for my 87 V20.
Yeah unfortunately it is a 1989 200 Yamaha and has a bad shift shaft. That means the power head has to be lifted just to have that 100 dollar part put in.
Also it sucks bad on gas. Maybe a few gallons every couple of miles, if that.

Re: Looking for a new engine for my 87 V20.
Ouch!
Three options: fix it and use it; fix it and sell it; part it out...

Re: Looking for a new engine for my 87 V20.
My yamaha and BS both had the shift rod go, it sucks to replace!!
BS fixed his own with his dad, I took mine to a good Yamaha guy that fixed it in 1/2 a day. Its a tuff call, what are the compression #'s Does the oil injection still work?? (Thats what killed mine last year) You could fix, but I am sure it will be like $500+ and thats not money your going to get back. So fix it and use or part out, more hassle parting out, but you will make out much better $$$ wise!
