Default I/O OR OUTBOARD - WHAT'S BEST??


"F330 GT" wrote in message
...


I will go with the 4 stroke. As to complexity, when you start adding all
the DFI, etc, those 2 strokes become very complicated and the complication
is added by very precision parts. 4 storkes are the same complexity as
nearly every automotive gas engine built for the last 100 years. My problem
with the new clean burning 2 strokes is lubrication and cooling. 2 strokes
have always been lubed and some cooling by the incoming fuel / oil charge.
Now this fuel oil mixture is not there to lub the crankcase and cool the
piston internally. IMO is the reason for so many failures of the Ficht
(they got it really wrong and why the Optimax's are not living as long as
Clam's tower of power.
