Yamaha HPDI 200hp

[Colt13]

Looking at a boat that has an early 2000s Yamaha VMAX HPDI. Never had one. Anything I should know? Any issues with this motor?

Very expensive to work on and maintain. I have a co-worker that had a 2005 HPDI 200, he bought it new. And he has had alot of trouble out of it the last couple years. Fuel filters, injectors, lower unit, and dropped a cylinder a couple months ago. He traded it in on a new Yamaha 200 SHO 4 stroke.
