I talked to a local Mech who said not to waste my money ($400), that chyrsler motors were hard to find parts for and they were very unreliable motors.

Watch the postings here, there are others out there. Also check chryslercrew.com.
If you ask a Merc mechanic about a honda or a Evenrude, what do you think he will say?
OK, got my two cents worth ... climbing off my soap box now."
