It's dark blue. (Evinrude?)<br /><br />3 cylinder, 3 carbs. Looks to be about a 1970. Looks like one of the very commmon models that was anywhere from a 50 to 75 Hp? Has the big lower unit that was interchangeable with a lot of other motors? The only numbers are on the freeze plug just like so,<br /><br />70443m<br />J000113<br /><br />Local repair facility didn't have a clue.<br />Any ideas?<br /><br />Thanks!

Re: Motor identification

Thank you very much, Roscoe!<br /><br />Now why doesn't a local service center have this sort of information? They acted like the motor came from India or something. <br />Does anyone know what motors the lower unit is interchangeable with?
