I am in the market for a new motor. One guy
tells me the 4 stroke mercury is far superior
to the 2 stoke. Another tells me that the 4 stroke
is a new motor which probably doesn't have all
the manufacturing glitches worked out which is why
it comes with a 3 year warranty instead of the
1 year warranty for the 2 stroke.

someone please un-confuse me.

thanks.

There is a very light new 4 stroke. I believe pretty much the other
merc 4 strokes are purchased form yamaha or others (except verado)

I would get the motor that runs of the main fuel. if you run mix then
get a 2 stroke .. otherwise 4 stroke.
