    If it was empty you would have heard the rocker arms clacking away. Drain a little after a few hundred miles and send it off to Blackstone for a UOA.

     

    I agree with Blackstone.  Inexpensive, and they will give you a written opinion off their analysis of the oil. 


  2. Free bump for a great TV.  
     

    I have the exact same TV (12 yrs old) in my living room.  I still get compliments from people on the great picture quality.  Way better picture quality than the newer tv’s I own. 
     

    Good luck with sale.

    Check the NADA values and they do list motors separately.  When there were boat dealers in Tucson, they would always have old motors for sale.  I do have a used 4-stroke Evinrude 6 hp and a 2-stroke 5hp Johnson for a long shaft that you may want to consider.

    NADA - I'll check.  I'll let you know on your motors - thanks!


  4. I am looking at buying a used boat with a 20HP fuel injection electric start Suzuki outboard motor.  Motor is lightly used, about 5-years old.  All the lakes I fish are 10HP or under, so I don't need the motor.  My question:  Is there a market for used outboard motors?  The boat I want is priced accordingly (with the motor), so I would need to sell it to re-coop my cost.  There is no similar motors for sale on craigslist.

    Thanks, Bob

    Another good read on my book shelves for those who enjoy such is Meet Mr. Grizzly - A Saga on the Passing of the Grizzly Bear by Montague Stevens (1859-1953). He was a Brit who graduated from Cambridge and moved to Catron County in New Mexico where he became one of the more noted grizzly bear hunters of the time. He used horses and hounds for most of his hunts, and after 1888, he did it with one arm after losing the other one in a hunting accident. He actually wrote the book, which was first published in 1943 by the University of New Mexico Press. 

    Great book, one of my favorites.
