I just bought a boat with a 1991 Johnson V6 VRO. It needs the prop to begin, but my concern is I think the engine is seized. Tried to turn the flywheel and did not move, then again I did not try really hard. everything works on it to include the tilt. My question is is it better to just get another engine or fix the one I got? I would sell the whole this for a smaller and older engine as long as its not under 115hp. Help please. I think I can get good money for the parts on it. |

Where do you live and how much do you want for it? It might be a good winter project! |
