Hi Sean its a 90 and runs on the quicksilver 2 stroke oil.
Got the same outboard on my icelander and they are very reliable,never had any probs although spark plugs do need cleaning and gapping fairly regular

I know they are the Early ETECS and some of the bigger ones suffered some issues in the late nineties and very early 2000's but i havent read or seen anything which says the ninetys had issues and at 2004 they were made by brp so any possible faults would of been well engineered out

I would find out if they could be run on the brp xd100 oil as when they are set up on it they sip it and use next to none at all and the plugs never foul
