    Yep had a 99 75 hp ( same motor different size carbs) for 8 years,changed the plugs 3 times because I wanted to and that's it. No trouble. Got 08 90,no trouble. Good motors that haul the mail. My boat 19" runs close to 50 with it.

    Those are solid motors ...You wont be disappointed...Be sure to do a compression check on all cylinders (130 psi) or close is good
