Are you also a political conservative? now your calling on Jesus to help your yamaha, I'm sure he could sqeeze more toque from the 4 stroke if you pray real hard, but thats what it would take a real miracle. your not a little kid are you harry? because I don't like arguing online with little kids, and any boob knows 2 cycles have much more toque than a equally rated 4 stroke. now buzz off kid... 1. My Yamaha doesn't need any help from imaginary gods living somewhere in the sky. 2. As soon as you have some scientifically accurate, published tests that compare the torque "output" of similarly spec'd two stroke and four stroke outboard powerheads at various speeds, why you be sure to post 'em, eh? I'm aware that many two strokes momentarily might have more "ooomph" when one firewalls the throttle, but that's not a "feature" that is overwhelmingly important to most boaters. The two four stroke outboard rigs I have owned have gotten onto plane without firewalling. The rest of your claims about two stroke superiority in fuel consumption, noise, and emissions are just plain bull****. There are miniscule differences between the various brands of outboards of similar output in these areas, and some of these differences are the result of gearing, props, weight, et cetera. 3. You should hook up with SW Tom as an e-tec fanboy. His claims about the gph burn of his e-tec are so far off the charts, they are laughable. 4. Evinrude has a weak dealer network in the Chesapeake Bay area. It wasn't that strong before OMC went teats-up and a lot of dealers moved on to other brands. This may not be true in your area, but for every E-tec you might see around here, you see 10 Yamahas, 6 Mercs, and three Zukes. The Suzuki brand is the one that's growing in popularity, probably because its dealer network is improving. 4A. MacDonalds sells the most hambergers. Volume equates to quality. Harold |
