E=Evinrude
50=50 horsepower
T=Power Trim & tilt
L=Long (20") shaft
ET=1993
B=To be ignored unless a mid-year change was made in some part and you happen to need that part.

EDIT: It is supposed to have VRO automatic oil injection, oil and gas in separate tanks. But make certain the VRO is still hooked up and operational. Some of them have gotten disconnected or removed. In that case, you have to run 50:1 gas/oil mix.
