Hi may I ask what the detail of the 2 stroke are ?

I think you'll find that 9.9hp can be fairly simply uprated to 15hp with just a carb change.

You'll prefer the acceleration of a 2 stroke

Unless you don't like the noise that is.

i dont like the noise, plus the adding oil to fuel, where would i find the model number on it do you think. ive had the hood off but cannot find nowt . thanks

It should be on the clamp or on a recessed aluminium disc on the side of the powerhead.

I assume you're aware of the other limitation of 4 strokes?

Are you expecting to cover the full purchase price of a 15hp 4 stroke with the sale of the 2 motors?

nar ive a few £ to one side just dont want 3 outboards in the house as she will go nuts, and the cash i get for the 2 out boards will help,,,

i found some deatils bit dark in that room but im sure it was A197112 AND B4822

Fair play.

Are you aware of the weight penalty you'll have? A 15hp 4 stroke could be hard to move without a trolley.

i was just thinking about that mate, as its a honda t40 sib and its heavy on its own haha, i no that 9.9 2 stroke gets it up and away, but i like everythink to look flash and new ish, so now im hoping someone will beable to let me no how much they would think its worth, thanks steve

The 9.9, I sold an identical one a while back for £500.

Not sure on the smaller one, got to be £250 minimum.

You might want to try a 15hp 4 stroke first though, you may find that it's got less get up and go from a standing start than the 9.9hp you have now.

ill have a hunt around i will, thanks for your help but i think ill put them on the auction site

you want a nice 25hp 2 stroke on there. Mine has a 25hp 2 stroke tohatsu, it flying.

The 15hp 4 stroke weighs the same as the 25hp 2 stroke (around 50kg)
