Ooch! emoBawl I went though that the year before last. If you salvage it out get ready to take very little for it. If you try to replace the power head get ready to pay around $7,500 to $8,000. Either way it sticks. Mine is a 200 Evinrude and before it was all done I paid $7,700.00 to have the power head replaced. It has been two years and so far so good. emoRolleyes The only other options is to try and find someone or someplace to try and fix the cylinder. I was told that is the cheapest but the most likely to not last. Good luck. emoSorry Jmax
