Re: What year and model is my Mercury?
That would be a CXL. C for counterrotation, XL for 25" transom (extra long shaft). EFI? I dunno. Have a look under the hood. Does it have carbs? Most EFI hoods would have EFI on them. No EFI on the hood, may not be EFI. Counterrotational models are usually used on boats with 2 or more outboards. You can use it as a standard rotation outboard, you just have to get a right handed prop and connect the shift control cable correctly at the lever.
