    Nah I wasn’t being like that....I just remember dropping some stuff off to Purcell there once and it seemed way smaller.....thought maybe there was more plant that I didn’t see.

    So the motor in question is made in China? Or is this speculation?

    It was a joke ..

    1) Loop charged = 2 stroke

    2) Overhead cam = 4 stroke

    3) EFI = applicable to both of the above

    4) Made in China = Chaz trying to ween himself from products made there

    All four = mentioned thru-out the thread ...

    Carry ~ on ...

    My eyes didn't catch on haha... I'm aware two strokes don't have a cam. I gotta learn to speak the lingo on here, sarcasm is easy in person but harder on a screen.

    I'm gonna reach out to mercury and ask them for a list what is manufactured at each plant. I bet they don't get back to me with a real answer, but you never know
