Thank you Nordin, but you & everyone else mentioned know waaaay more than me about these.
I think that gica isn't sure what he has because;
The 125 HP was only made up till 1989 and the last "version" still had the prestolite ignition.
The 120 HP had the prestolite till '94 and forward the Merc. ignition in '96 the Fly-wheel was "upgraded"
Ok so I don't know why I thought it was a Force but it is a Mercury 2 stroke 125hp
with the white oil container on the starboard side. I am waiting for pictures from my friend on this. But it is a Mercury 125 for sure. I tgough I saw Force by Mercury for some reason. Looks like the picture

Not a complete waste I did add the Youtube link that actually tests all this.

I opened another thread on the right forum. Thanks a lot for the attempted help from everyone, really sorry for screwing up the listing and wasting everyone's time.
