Submitted by therock on Sun, 2014-11-16 19:44
Put a conrod thru bottom of engine the other day which was slightly disappointing to say the least.
Anyone know of a good dealer/trader where i can a replacement powerhead?
Its a F225hp 2004 four stroke.
Cheers for your help in advance.

Hours ?
therock,
Curious as to how many hours on the motor, and also do you have any idea what caused it to let go ?
The reason I'm interested is that that I'm also running a 2004 model F225.....................
Cheers

Narrowed it down to bolt
Narrowed it down to bolt fatigue on big end bearing.
Shear the conrod and punched a perfect hole in sump.
This was first trip after rebuilding boat and swapping from IO to OB.

Bad luck
Jeesus, that's bad news !
Did you rebuild yourself ? or qualified mechanic ? dealer ?
I can only assume this will not be cheap and you are feeling the pain ! Hope you have better luck.
