I recently purchased a mariner 150 that upon mounting and start up I found that the 2 lower pistons were cooked and as i investigated more i also found a hole in what I would call the crankcase cover. My question is, is this motor worth rebuilding and does anyone have any parts? I pulled the heads and they are trashed on those 2 cylinders, and there are some fairly deep gouges in the cylinder wall on the lower left piston. I have never owned or worked on a mariner/mercury and would appreciate any info as to what year it might be as well. Also is it possible to repower to a 175 or even larger? I cant afford the cost of a new motor and the sellers response was it worked fine when I had it so I am looking for options. thanks
