By looking at pictures on the Internet, I do believe this is a 4-53 as well.
The 4-71 intake is on the opposite side.
The guy said the starter was toast, so I was trying to look up a new one.
So far - nothing at the usual parts places.
It is suppose to rain for the next week here, if I find a break, I will go take a few pics in a day or 2.
Thanks!
