Mariner 40hp Year identification/ what prop i should buy?

[Dukhunter925]

i have a 40hp mariner outboard, i was wondering what year the motor is and what prop i should get for it(it got banged up in an accident.

the #'s say

Mariner 40EL
6E9 L 418734

on the prop is says

Propco 14p

so i figured is a 14 pitch but what diameter comes stock on this since its all bent up i cant measure it. as well any info on the motor would be great (common problems).


Thanks alot

do you want the same pitch? if you wanted to change, you can ask in the prop forum for advice. they will want to know your WOT rpm and speed to advise
