Would appreciate any info. or sites re: battling outboard motor company for manufacture defect that showed up shortly after warranty period expired. Case in point, engine block is porous and completely showered outside of motor with salt and filled inside with saltwater completely destroying engine. Purchased 225 hp. in May 2005. My position is this had to be ongoing for some time, confirmed by discussions with o.b. mechs. and would be happening while still under warranty.
