looking at a boat with a pair of these.<br /><br />i did the search thing and read through the comments. some educational posts, but as usual i mostly read stay away, with no substance.<br /><br />if i do venture out and get this boat, what steps should i take to minimize risk?<br /><br />i read about the updates and such. if i can get the model and serial numbers off the engines, can a service technician tell me history of the engine? if i get the engines checked out by a mechanic, can they hook it up to a computer and tell me more?<br /><br />if everything checks out (all updates performed, no error codes, etc) what are the bad things that could still happen (at least particular to these engines)?<br /><br />thanks-
