Yes, there are some things to look out for:
Upper unit needs rather frequent oil change.
The Windsor engine need a LOT of cooling water, keep the impeller in the drive fresh!
If shifting starts getting difficult, take down the lower unit, out with the servo assist for shifting, dismantle and clean (not possible according to manual, but no problem). Clean oil pump screen.
Remember to grease the swivel at the drive. (front behind a plastic plug.
In my opinion a good unit, just needs a bit of care!
Get a manual!!!!!"
