Hey guys I'm trying to help a friend out but I have never been around any mercruiser drives. How do you Id these as for as getting a manual and parts I know its a 2002 with a 3.0L GM engine but not sure the common names for the drive.

Send me a personal message thru the notifications tab above with a good email address and I can send you a pdf file of the Mercury manual. It is 10 meg kinda big.
