I looked the numbers up to find out what year it was. I'm assuming that the L stands for long shaft? The motor was suppose to have been rebuilt about 3 years ago and I have ridden on the boat two summers ago and it ran pretty good but it has been in storage for the last two years. I plan to rebuild the carbs, replace the impeller, plugs and what ever else you all think need replacing. Is there anything I might need to know about this engine? Any advice for a me for an engine that has sit for two years? I would appreciate any feedback.<br /><br />Thanks<br /><br />Brent
