Tiffany Woods
Awe thank you all!! It is his birthday today and he is doing alright. He says a few more words, looks to be in good spirits generally speaking, and is getting around in his wheelchair better. Sadly, however, this may be the best he’s going to be. We don’t know, only time will tell.

I think it is a 60 degree V4 carb, looper production powerhead. A very good engine. Not sure why you are asking Fujimo.

This was sent to me & I had no idea on god's green earth what the hell it was. They said it might be an Evinrude but weren't sure. Posted it here for the OMC guru's to I.D. What year(s) would this have been? Horsepower?

Came out in around 1995 as a 90 and 115 HP and was later replaced by the E-TEC.
The carb model was a very good engine..but not so good with the Ficht fuel injection.
