Evinrude Model Year?

DJ,

Mahalo for the info. The 15 is a manual tilt. My cousin's husband passed
away and no one in her family fishes. Subject motors, along with 17' boat,
trailer and all accessories will be donated to the Kidney Foundation.

Mahalo again,

It's INTRODUCES alright, but not on the serial number but rather on part of the
model number. I have a model E90ELEUA, s/n G12345678 (I don't
remember the exact numbers, but it begins with G and the rest are numbers).
The EU indicates a 97 model. I'm not sure how you tell which letters
to use, but it looks like the sixth and seventh. But that doesn't work for
the 88 HP example. Maybe in that case CE=89? Ah, maybe the two
letters following L? That works for all three examples.

1 I
2 N
3 T
4 R
5 O
6 D
7 U
8 C
9 E
0 S

Now, why they couldn't have used E90EL97A, I dunno.

Aloha Chuck,

I believe DJ meant model number but typed s/n instead. I'm pretty sure the
88 HP is a 1994 because my cousin said they bought it in the mid-nineties.
MY 9.9 hp Evinrude (J10RLEER) was purchased new in '99. Don't know what the
"R" stands for and why the "J" when the cowling says Evinrude. They must
have taken the cover of the "E" & placed it over the Johnson. Now my 70 HP
4-stroke Evinrude (Suzuki) m/n E70PL4SI has a stamp with 06/2000. Until
now, I thought it was a 2000 model (purchased February 2001).
<a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://www.NADAguides" target="_blank">www.NADAguides</a> has it listed as a 2001. Boat serial numbers has set
positions for the year manufactured so using digits would have been easier
to decipher.

Greetings:

I was web chasing for rings for my johnson and I came across a web page that
listed all the years / hp and the serial numbers to decypher model year..

I will look in my past to see if I can find this but it was supplied by an
aftermarket catalog retailer somewhere..
