I am trying to find out what year this motor is ? What spark plug to use in it ? I also will be needing a prop since it is broke pretty bad. The tag has 2617726 , any help would be appreciated. Thanks

the serial # says it was made in 1969'. the original spark plug was a Champion L4J or an AC M42FF probably no longer made. cross reference for the equivalent

These motors have a serial number tag on them attached near the powerhead. Once you know the serial number you can look up the year online at: http://www.marineengine.com/mfr/mercury_models.html . The following pic shows the typical location of the tag. Sometimes they put it on the starboard side.
