Need help! 1987 Nissan 55hp

[kyduckhunter]

I bought my first bass boat with this 1987 Nissan 55hp on it and it runs good for now but I'm have been told that regular things have to be changed on them after a few years such as water pump n things. N I wonder if I can still get parts for this motor or if it does go down am I screwed. Thanks

So what do u suggest I do the boat is in good shape and the motor runs good now, guess save up for a newer 55 or so to replace it.

Is there anything I can get for it. Or maybe able to find used somewhere or jus no parts at all.

Few if any parts available new from Tohatsu.

It's always possible to find used parts on eBay, but, the things that you will need like carb and water pump parts, will not be any good used. Best advice is to sell it to some other guy that needs spares.

Would you have any idea where I might find a water pump impeller or kit for an '86 M70A2?? Thanks!
