Inspect the Used Outboard Motor

Once you find a used outboard motor that you are interested in buying, perform a thorough inspection. Look for any signs of issues, evidence of damage, and other problems that would likely result in hefty repair bills down the road.

 

For example:

• Inspect the exterior and pay close attention to the cowl. 

• Take note if a new cowl has been installed since this can indicate hidden issues.

• Examine the shaft and propeller.

• Check the oil. It should be runny and clean. Cloudy oil indicates that the engine may have taken on water. Oil containing metal shavings or sludge indicates the motor could have problems.

 

Learn About the Used Outboard Motor

Find out as much information about the used outboard motor as possible. Ask questions about how often the motor was used, how well it was serviced, and so on. Learning about the used outboard motor's past helps you predict its future performance and longevity.
