It has set for the past 2yrs so after I drained all the old fuel it would fire up but spit and sputtered real bad and just reved it a few times but it would only hit 2500 rpms and I was just making sure it was normal

Don't know about the 200, my 250 pro xs has one set at 1600 rpm's. I would think it would be for all outboard motors now days.

Put the muffs on it and put it in gear and see if it will rev more.
From Genesis: "And God promised men that good and obedient wives would be found in all corners of the earth."
Then He made the earth round...and He laughed and laughed and laughed!
