and it should be a 5.5hp. And why do others get old outboards given to them and I have to buy them... sigh...

Hey guys, thanks for the information. I had a real struggle to make out the hp size. Someone with extra red paint decided to paint over the decals on the top cover and was a very sloppy paint job anyways... but thanks again for you help. You guys rock!
