OMC 245 Jet drive???

[emilime75]

I am looking at a 73 Sea Shark with a 245 OMC inboard and jet drive. I am completely clueless to this sort of drive train...my experience is solely outboards hanging of the transoms. What should I look for? What are the trouble spots as far as the motor/drive are concerned. The boat has been taken care of, but not used in several years.

Skip it like you were skipping town to get away from an angry woman....

That power package is about as obsolete as obsolete gets.... you'll never find parts or service for it should you need it.
