Turn to you guys for help again, the P20 I looked at here in Norway was prettymuch a good lookin wreck! But I might get a P21 from TI if everything works out So to the issue: been offered a Yam V6 200 1887, looks clean and well cared for, but dont know much about it! Been sitting on a Hydrolift T20 doing 65 knots at best, no nosecone. Anyone know if there is something that usually breaks or needs replacement on these engines after all these years? Anything I should be concerned about and any key questions I should ask the bloke?
Cheers

i've heard of a lot of Yam 2-stroke v6's going bang,
tends to be the newer ones though.

My mates a yamaha main dealer, problems with 300 big time, usually top two pistons?I know of one 300 engine which has had 3 new powerheads from yam and its only 1 year old.
