This is probably a WillyWorm question but the more that chime in, the better.
I am a pretty darn good 2 stroke mechanic but have never needed to or been around converting one to a tiller.
I need a nice 40 to 50 hp tiller motor for the new project.
I think I have a chance to buy a super clean and great running fresh water 2006 Yamaha 50. It has electric start, tilt and trim and is oil injected. The price of this motor leaves me enough cash in my budget to buy whatever I need for the conversion. Here are the questions I need answered, after searching past threads on here, I am more confused.
1) How difficult would it be to add a tiller handle if I do it myself
2) I don't understand the difference of "new style" vs. "old style" tiller handles
3) Would this motor's existing tilt and trim wire right into the tiller kit I buy or would it need "jerry rigging" to make it work
4) Would the motor's current electric start be easy to wire into the tiller or plug and play with "kit"
5) Are these "conversion kits" plug and play
6) What kind of cost for what I would need am I looking at?
finally, what would you guys that have done these go with? I want it nice
Thanks
Rick
