    Will let someone who can check the number on that tag verify it. Based on the fact it has the two line
    fuel connector so would use a pressure tank. It would have to be a 1959, that was the first year for that
    shroud design and also the last year the pressure tanks were used. I have a 59 5.5 and a 58 10hp both are great running
    old motors. Make sure the seals on the lower unit are good, impeller is new, might also check the coils and make sure they
    are not cracked. Should start 1-3 pulls every time and idle down real low if everything is good. May need tuned up and carb rebuilt
    both are easy to do and not expensive to buy the parts.

    turned off?
