My 1987 Montauk is going into the shop for a repowering. Gone is the original Johnson 88 and a new Yamaha F70 is going on. Two questions: the old motor did not have an oil pump but was a premix engine. So, there has always been gas and oil in the tank. Should (or can) I retain the old fuel tank? Secondly, aside from engine, controls, prop, anything else I should watch or ask about during the repowering. My thanks in advance to anyone who can share their thoughts on the process. Regards, Tom
