    What you should think about is where you are going to be using this engine and what dealers are close by should you have a problem.If you buy something and you have no dealer around it will be a pain to get parts or have it repaired.As far as what's the best,they are all great when they run,so it is really your own preference as to what brand or manufacturer you prefer.

    what, Tennessee bass do no longer chew interior the wintry climate? while you would be fishing this wintry climate (I effective as heck am), do exactly this: tilt the motor completely down for a jiffy after each and every use, to make effective all the water drains from the powerhead, and alter the kit oil, purely in case you had some water intrusion (so it won't crack the gearcase by ability of freezing). in case you do confirm to winterize, spray fogging oil during the carb throats with the motor idling, till it chokes 'em out.
