If the motor is in good condition compression and everything runs great and EVEN TITLE get a 6 month garentee with it or even 3 months. BUT NO warrenty i would say no deal as you are paying for one.

Re: yamaha 40hp

if i buy the motor how hard is it to hook everything up as controls, wiring and steering components?

Re: yamaha 40hp

The wiring for the yamaha motor should be a plug on the motor and a plug comming from your control box wher eyou just plug together Everything is pretty easy. the wiring is the hardest part if not a plug type. Make sure the steering on your old motor is the same as on the new motor. You might need a title in your state for the motor. LIKE TEXAS None of the wires / controls are the same except the battery cable (Maby) as your old motor.
