I am contemplating buying this

I am contemplating buying this used engine. Can someone tell me is it a 2 stroke or a 4 stroke and has anyone had any major problems with this engine.
Thanks
Dan

A good design, but as with anything mechanical, problems can develop/exist. Unless you're experienced in the field, it's best to have it checked over by a experienced Evinrude/Johnson mechanic before making the purchase.
