Any luck or further progress on your motor and getting it working? Was hoping to read a good news story with a manufacturer and dealer doing it right by a client with a low hour motor and sorting you out.

With a serial number check these may be the same computer and motor- cheap spares.

hey, that's my old boat and my old motors.

[cormorant]

nah it can't be Noel.

Ya see those injected 2 strokes can't make it past their first service let alone to 2000hrs. Yep I had v6's at 1800 plus hours good compression - that was a miracle as well.

So mate - I calling you out as it can't possibly happen.

Always intersting to see where your old boats and motors end up. I nearly bought a pair of my non injected motors back many years ago until I recognised them and saw the serial numbers, realised someone had changed the hour meters - so I warned the guy that if I saw em on another boat ( we marked and serial numbered / punched all parts) I'd tell the owner the real hours - what do ya know a year later saw em , told the bloke built like a weed, he put it straight back on the trailer , smoked up the ramp and from all reports went and gave a bloke who sold em a flogging after a cashcard visit.

Yep, those motors were/are good, the guy who got my old boat bought it with a repower in mind, so in guess he has decided to go ahead now.

yes at last my boat is ready to go, I took everybody`s advice and emailed BRP and explained to them that ive been on the ausfish forum disscussing the problem with the EMM and that they all adviced me to contact them and that they should help me. Well it worked the next day they contacted me saying they will send me a new emm at a discounted price of $1000 + gst a massive saving of $2500 i just had to pay for fitting at the dealership ( who by the way werent that happy ) so all told cost $1300 i`m so happy with the outcome and i`d like to really thank everyone for all your help and advice i`m so happy with your help i always tell everyone to join your help is invaluable once again many thanks.

Cheers Mick

G'day Mick

That is a good result as you could get without argy bargy and probably pretty fair all things considered. $300 for your local dealer to spend under a hours work is a bit rich but....... and a shame you really have to push to get what should be there for you.

Now to pay the Ausfish advice fee!!! Hope you budgeted for it . Yep the lottery ticket - let us know if we win and we can all upgrade motors .
