I've got a 1995 bayliner 1800 LS Bow Rider with a 120 force engine, but for the prop wizard, i need to know it the engine is a:

120

Dual Exhaust Model

Single Exhaust Model

L-Drive Dual Exhaust Model

L-Drive Single Exhaust Model


thanks.

if nobody knows, is there any way that i can figure this out by looking at the engine?

Re: this may not go here..

I think the "L" drive refers to right hand or left hand rotation. Looking at the prop from the rear of the boat a "L" rotation will spin counter-clockwise to propel the boat forward. You should be able to see if the motor has one exhaust going to the exit or two pipes.

Engine serial # and model number are needed. The L drive does not reflect the rotation of the engine for the Force. For most Force models there are limited selecions of props. Get a prop with a universal hub and you should be in a better position.

What is wrong with your current prop?

Look at this link and scroll down towards the bottom of the page. http://www.piranha.com/force_considerations.php

L drive was a Force hybrid outboard with a tippable/steerable lower that proved to be somewhat cumbersome and was eventually dropped. If you have one, you'd know it. The powerhead is hard fixed to the transom and only the lower unit moves to steer and trim/tilt.
