Mercury Optimax 200hp

Post by Letsinger »

2000 Mercury Optimax 225hp, hours unknown due to a new computer being put on by previous owner. It has a 2005 200hp reman. quicksilver powerhead, newer lower unit, and runs great.

Prop and controls not included.

Throttle positioning sensor acts up every once in a while, I just put it back in neutral and it fixes itself. The hydraulics on the tilt and trim slowly looses pressure so the motor drops slowly over time. No leaks or anything. Oil light comes on, I checked the whole system, pumps oil no problems. Its probably a faulty sensor. I've ran it over a year with the light coming on and off with no problems.

Pushes the Ranger 520vx a little over 60 mph on gps with a 24p tempest.

New motor on the way, so this needs to go. best offer.
