[QUOTE="turbotodd, post: 382419, member: 7376"] Maybe. Many who upgrade from 2 stroke to 4 stroke don't care for the 4 stroke's power characteristics. But many also forget to think about how the differences relate to the prop. Propping on a 2 stroke leaves some leeway to miss the tune up a little, where a 4 stroke is absolutely critical to the right prop. The worst part for most is tilting a manual tilt motor. Them old 2 strokes were pretty easy to tilt. The 4 strokes aren't nearly as easy; part of it is the weight difference and the rest of it is WHERE the weight is placed. 4 stroke motor's going to have most of the weight more toward the back of the motor, which makes it a little harder to tilt. PT&T is awesome on a 4 stroke, but it comes at a price. [/QUOTE]
