Look on the powerhead for a quarter size core plug (looks like a small freeze out plug). It may have the model & serial number on it. If no luck there, post some pictures of the engine for us.

Ahhhhh yes. A CD in disguise. They were in production from 56 - 64, under the Evinrude marque. Two years prior, Johnson built and sold lots of them and gave them a proven track record. The 61 and later I think were probably the best built ones, because they built them with a needle bearing set up, as apposed to the earlier friction style. The old ones ran at 16:1 mix. If you run in a barrel, the neighbors might squack, because of all the smoke. :D

Post some pics of your little gem, so we can help identify it too.
