The silver "plug" on the top of the engine block says G3318787. But I can't find that G designation on any of the search sites. Can you decode this? Also, does that mean it's 88HP?<br /><br />Thanks. <br /><br />Tom

Thanks Trent. <br /><br />Guess I logged the wrong number. I'll look on the transom when I can get back to the boat and maybe then all will be revealed!<br /><br />Tom

Thank you, John! Your help saved me a 70 mile round-trip and gets me started down the right road. <br /><br />Next up: see if I can get it to start and run.<br /><br />Thanks again.<br /><br />Tom
