2007 Etec 175 Questions
Considering purchasing a 2007 175 with less than 300 hours for my 20sf. I know in general CSC is etec leaning, with performance to weight ratio I understand why. The engine has not been run in 6 months when it was last taken off the boat it was on. Before taking it off the boat, the current owner took it to and etec dealer and had the print out done on it. Is there anything I should be worried about with this engine. Anything to look for? Also, trying to figure out how to read the engine history report.( which I have tried to attach.)
As always, thank you very much for your input guys. Cheers, RyBones

I definitely don't understand all the coefficient stuff but if you get it I suggest you change the impeller; they develop a 'set' from sitting and it looks like the peak temps near 200 are on the warm side - same thing you would get from a weak impeller.

Like Bushwacker, I love my 2006 Etec 150. Had estimated 275 hours on it when I bought the SeaFari, used it about 25 hours, and had the 300 hour service done at 299 hours! But I thought my printout was more similar to a Yamaha engine history, ie, amount of time spent in 1k rpm increments. Good observation Mitch!
I’d buy another one, or buy this one and I’d trade it for a 1999 Johnson 175 with 162 original hours! Haha. Seriously, don’t know asking price, but I love my Etec. Vezo, Part II

if you head over to barnacle bills website, they can tell you anything you need to know. it is an etec owners website. just put up the serial number and show them the pic you have of the eco printout and they'll give you a dissertation-on the engine

Stood the engine up and mounted on a homemade stand the other day. Wired it and then fired it on the first turn of the key. After a small ground issue. Was VERY happy about that because I wasn't happy that I bought an engine from someone upstate without hearing it run, and let it sit for 2 weeks eating at my soul as to the soundness of my actions. But it sounds great and is soo quiet compared to my otherwise flawless 94' 150 looper (Shhhhh. I haven't told her yet that we are going to have to find her a new home), and I have the etec Tech guy coming today to put the computer on it and do a compression test. If anyone sees this in time, any suggestions about questions to ask or things to look for? There is one very peculiar thing though, the EMM has 200HO etched into it. I know the 200 EMM could be fine for the 175 because both are the 60 degree block, but he 200 HO is the 90 degree block..... (Shifty eyed emoji)

That's an outstanding bit of info Erebus! Because even my mechanic that was on it today was a little stumped with that one. But I really can't thank you enough for that information. Overall everything seems good with the engine, few glitches, need to check water pump, although only 5 hours on the impeller apparently it's not functioning or efficiently enough. Hopefully it's just improperly seated seals. Missing Deutsch connector for oil tank connector. Missing plastic flywheel-EMM and injector covers/shrouds. Missing latches in Cowling for both sides, only front is intact. (Erebus, as you likely know the name association, my future 23 with the mercury 400hp is to be named "PBR Streetgang".)
