Default Merc 40 info

Can anyone give me a heads up about this motor. I know that I can get the
mfr. date off the main frame, and it will tell me. I did not know this when
I tested the boat, but read it after. But, I went and got three plugs for
it, and now I see pictures of it with four cylinders. I had a 40 Merc short
shank years ago in the seventies, and IIRC, it had three cylinders.


Serial number please. :-)
