Why dont you repair the twin?
They are a good solid motor.
Then at least you will have a "known quality"engine,
instead of trading for someone elses second hand cast off. |

After a three year rebuild of the boat, I'm reluctant to start again on the motor. I've not seen it running although it turns over ok with the seized pot removed. If a good pot and piston assy. turn up a rebuild will be an option. |
