Trying to make a 2 stroke low emission is just not worth it. Doing so
negates one of the biggests advantages of a two stroke, it's simplicity.

Do you have some legitimate statistics that demonstrate that four stroke
outboards are measurably more reliable and riskfree than two-stroke
outboards. I mean generally, say, for the last 50 years of production,
in horsepowers of 150 or more. Big, highly stressed engine. The real deals.

I'll be glad to read them with great interest.

Not opinions. Genuine, scientifically based statistics.
