Unloading an O/B at 400hrs - what's up?

[filthypit]

Why do so many people seem to unload their their outboard motors @ or around 400hrs?

Is there something I don't know?

Any comments are appreciated.

I don't know, haven't heard that before. I just worked on a Z250TXRB last week with 2,670 hours on it.

I'm selling my 2001 250 OX66 with 400 - 500 hrs because I want to switch to 4 strokes. I'm waiting for the promotion where they double the warranty.
Maybe people unload them because the warranty runs out.

Musmach when you are ready to sell that 2001 250 OX66 motor send me an e-mail with the model number & the price you are asking for it I will need to know the shaft length as well. I could be very interested in that motor you can contact me at e-mail thriller-ocean-tours@caribsurf.com
