IO360 - Factory new vs Factory rebuilt

[Kim Geyer]

We have installed 5 remans in the past 2 yrs. 3 had to go back to the factory. 1 for an oil leak-- new crank case, point 8 hrs. 2 for magneto impulse coupling stop pins going through the gear box.
one had 50 hrs. the other had 136 hrs. Yea their warrenty covered the repairs, but still not a very good track record. I guess if they make 200 hrs. they will be OK
