I have a 2004 200hp ox66 on my stratos and it has been a good motor so far. When I was looking for boats I did a lot of research and read that the ox66 motors were good. It was the hdpi's that they had problems with.

Ok.  From what I found as well most of the reviews saI'd that they r a good motor.  I did read tho that someone said it's a salt water eeries, is that tru?  How r theh on gas and oil?

They are designed for saltwater. Someone else who has run the motor will have to answer your other questions. I've never personally run one or been in a boat with one at least that I can remember in recent years.

They love gas and oil, I have an 05 200hp OX66 on my skeeter and it has been a good motor.

   Who cares about the gas and oil??  If you wanna play you have to pay.  LOLOLOL  I've never had two motors of the same horse power so I can't judge the gas and oil.  I had a 2002 150 OX66.  Ran great !!!
