I am going to be looking over the next few months for a replacement motor for my Mako 19. It currently has a 1977 Johnson 140 that is providing a little more trouble than I would like. New is out of the question... I dont have the money for that. So, I have been looking at used engines. I am somewhat limited because I have to have a 20" shafted model.
I am looking for some advice on what I should be looking for in a motor, and I have a few questions.
Would it be cost effective to buy a motor with a blown power head and have it rebuilt?
What about buying a motor that has already been rebuilt or has a new power head?
Just looking for some help as I have never purchased a motor.
