Luckily for me , it does not get winterized as in Miami it runs all year. It's the std 200, not the HO type. I will get some speeds up for comparison. I wanted the 225 since it is essentially the same engine, but at the time, the $700 difference was right.
if you wanna save that engine,you need to reprop it,to get it to spin the correct rpm...
