Mariner 200hp 2 stroke compressor
Hi all, does anyone have a compressor of a Mariner 200hp 2 stroke that is in good or excelent condition?
I think the engine is an 2006 model (I can check).

Please drop me a line if you have.

Thanks
Lee

Not under warranty as it is water damage.

do you mean the whole engine was dropped in the water... or are you saying that Mariner don't think their outboards are intended for use in water?

You must be reading a different post to me, coz i can't see where you read that?

Water damage can be any number of things, but maybe in this case water in the fuel eh?

The engine has NOT been underwater.
There are some salt crystals in the bottom of the engine cover and I have to assume the water somehow ingressed in there.
It looks like it has been drawn up through the air filter and into the compressor.
I am completely MIFFED about this.
The engine was taken in to be checked because of another fault that is REALLY gripping my shit but, this was just a complete kick in the bollocks.

Guys I appreciate the interest but.
DOES ANYONE HAVE A COMPRESSOR OF A 200HP OPTIMAX?

Thanks in advance

If you have no luck sourcing one at the right price in the UK you could always try importing from the US
Crowley Marine for instance do ship over here - compressor is $805
Probably $100 shipping plus taxes so not sure how this compares
The last time I bought parts from these the $ was 1.98
