I just picked up a john deere power unit. g-017596 is the serial. Can anyone tell me what year and any other info?

Powered by a motor from a L or LA

The L or LA engine ones usually have the model number on the tag too. Like LUC these are a 2 cyl.
I have also seen several 4 cyl. units from off of # 25 combines.
So yours is a 2 cyl. flat head engine ?

Yes it's the two cylinder flat head. I'm using it as a donor motor for my 41 LA.

They fit right in but the radiator inlet and outlet are larger. I just used the power unit radiator too when I changed mine. Should be able to swap over the inlet and outlet if you have a good radiator.
