Reply to Raul V: This engine starts and runs excellent. A lift pump, as stated in a post above, is about $45-$50 and very easy to replace. The rear main seal is also relatively easy to replace when the
motor is out of the boat (not so easy with the engine still in the boat). I would also recommend that, with the engine out of the boat, the fuel distribution pump should be examined by a technician (also much easier to do with the engine out of the boat). Other components replaced fairly recently:

fuel filter, thermostat, plus normal
maintenance.
