    I believe that both the loop charged 18 25 and the old 22cui were available in 1980 after that the loop charged engine which was very different from the old 20 hp and the new engine had a lot more zip it was made for U.S. consumption until 2006 or2009 in the Fon Du lac plant and may still be made for over seas markets . In 1981-2 the workers went on strike and the staff put the engines together our salesman was on the line the lower unit was terrible I believe as a result the lower was completely changed in late 1983 and the cowlings in the 90’s
