Sorry that's all I got engine wise. Sorry. :( there isn't much room in that engine bay without unbolting the box. Thanks.

Yes. The MPI stands for multi port fuel injection. The ECM is inside the black box to the right behind the white oil filter.

I can see the MAP sensor and the fuel schrader valve to check fuel pressure.

Awesome! Thanks. I had a feeling, it started super easy. Anything bad I should know about these engines?

They're all good until they break down.:)

Questions to ask the previous owner:
Was the engine ran in salt?
Was the maintenance kept up the best you know of?
One of the biggest concerns would be the conditions of the exhaust manifolds & exhaust gaskets +/between the exhaust riser elbows as if they leak, it could hurt the engine internally.
If possible, take the boat for a lake test ride.
