Buying a boat and it has a 1995 200 xri, i know it's fuel injection any particular problems with them? i have always owned carbed motor's.

I have had a couple and they are great motors. A lot of them were FF blocks.

Had one on my sst and it was awesome. Bullet proof ran great never missed a beat. Pretty much a detuned promax. I would buy another on in a heartbeat. Not the fastest but will run forever.

If injectors are maintained regularly.

If injectors are maintained regularly.

Got one today, an FF block, seriously windowed, My guess is injector.

I have 3 blown in my garage. 2 are "FF" one is an "EE". 1 was due to oil injection failure and 2 were fuel injection failure. I like my carbs on those motors. Might not start as easy, but seem to last longer. JMO

What’s the difference between ff and ee ?

[bullet123]

"FF" Porting is similar to the Promax.

[Bruce2]

So should i do a oil pump bypass on it and mix my fuel?

[bullet123]

I would before I turned the key. JMO

I’d say 90% of guys get rid of it. I never got around to doing it on my xri before I sold it. I bought the block off for my promax but the things been running too perfect to bring it home from the river. It’ll happen this winter for sure.

Thanks all for input..

What should compression be on a cold motor?

[Bunger]

120-130ish

More important that they’re all the same within about 5 psi than that they’re a specific number. The reading may vary from gauge to gauge but they should all be close to the same!
