Hi All,
I recently purchased a 1998 Four Winns Horizon QX with a Volvo Penta/OMC 3.0L mated to an SX Cobra stern drive. It has cleaned up nicely and is running great. I'm currently in fact finding mode (coming from a Yammy 115 outboard) to gather as much data on this boat as I can for my files -a HUGE THANKS to all those that have posted great questions and received great answers from the info I've searched through!
Unfortunately, I've not been able to find anything here or on the www that provides any way to identify whether it has the GM or Ford 3.0L engine. The shop manual outlines that both engines (could?) have been present that year? Although the manual mentions both, the "identifier blurb" does not provide for any distinction between the two in their "decoding the engine model number" section.
Do any of you have any idea based on the info:
Engine: model# 302CPBYM serial# T01311942
Transon: model# 3868843 serial#T00383398
Unit: model# 3868814 serial#T00819714
or know of an area I can go to determine what engine/parts I should be hunting for if ever there are problems? Thanks greatly for any input.
