Check the actual model and serial number with Mercury. If newer it’s possibly a four stroke. If it’s an older motor it’s more likely to be a two stroke.
the serial number begins 2487558 and continues past 2491265 and as the beginning serial number denotes the year , your engine is 1969 model
it shows as a 2 stroke with auto oil injection
check the heads
if the plugs are in the flat of the head and there are no rocker covers it is 2 stroke
talk with a mercury /mariner service center
I have a problem with my 2 stroke 20hp mercury 1989,when I run 10-90% throttle it's works fine but when in 100% its only runs in 90% and doesn't sound normal like it's not burning right.
