how to the age of an evenrude 6 hp

[coasty]

just been given an old evenrude 6hp. i was wondering does anybody know how to tell the age of it.
needs a bit of work but my kids can have fun pulling down the gearbox and rebuilding it

There is a web site somewhere that you can tell the age from the model number (you look it up on the list). However I can't find the link. If anyone has it, we would both appreciate it - I will have to add it to my Favourites.

I will have another look around myself too....

I know for sure it was for Johnson, pretty sure it was for Evinrude too....

Or you can try this site. It's not english but you can guess your way through.

I'm going to have to remember that system Gary. Sounds easy as for my simple head ;)

There's also a better one that shows exploded views but I can't find it at the moment.

Your local library is also worth a shot. If you're in Bris try elibcat.

to find age of the motor have a look at this site
