Hi all
Looking at a 2002 Nissan NSF6A2 now - seller has it advertised as 4hp though which is strange. I inquired and he said someone else questioned whether its 6hp and suggested its 4hp (not sure how they would have determined this). He said he had the carb overhauled and a new impeller installed by a local marine company. He inquired with them and they didnt give him a straight answer as to whether its 4hp or 6hp lol. Is it possible or likely that he had a smaller 4hp carb installed during the overhaul?
Otherwise, it sounds like it has relatively low hours as he used it to tender to a mooring in a harbor.
What do you guys think? And is there a really obvious or easy way to tell if it actually is in fact 6hp?
This would be my first motor so just want something that will be relatively easy to [learn to] maintain and service but that's already in decent condition
