In addition to the visual inspection you can also determine a great deal about the condition of a used boat motor by listening to them when they start up. To start the motor, tug on the cord and then listen to the way the motor sounds. The motor should start up right away and it should sound as if the motor is making a thunking type of noise.
It’s important to determine if your motor makes a thunk or clunk sound. When a boat motor makes a noise similar to a clunking sound, they are often severely damaged and might be more trouble than they are worth. By knowing what to look for when choosing a boat motor, you can make certain that you select a unit that will work properly and provide you with countless hours of enjoyment.

When choosing used boat motors, carefully examine the entire base and make certain that there are no visible cracks. Cracks in a motor are a good sign that the motor is seriously damaged and that the water inside of the unit had become frozen at one point. You should also thoroughly examine the motor for any hints of corrosion. When a motor becomes corroded you can be certain that the motor was stored away with salt water inside of it. The salt is very damaging and can cause the motor to malfunction. Taking the time to ensure that the motor you are interested in is in working order will ensure that you get the maximum value from your investment.
