Engine Rotation
Engine rotation is determined by observing flywheel rotation from the rear (stern end) of the
engine looking forward (toward water pump end). Propeller rotation is not necessarily the
same as engine rotation. When ordering replacement engine, short blocks or parts for
engine, be certain to check engine rotation. Do not rely on propeller rotation in determining
engine rotation.
