Hello all,

Where can I go to find out what years my motor is?

I know that it is:

Johnson
115 Horsepower
Model # 115ETL77S
Serial # J4802704

Would some guide me in the right direction?

It has been sitting for 12 years and I would like to try to get it back on the water.

Have a great day,

detox

Take your model # and follow along:
115 = 115hp
E = electric
T= trim
L= 20" shaft
77 = year
S= model run
This only works on 1980 and later engines

So this engine is for 1977? Wow I did not know it was that old. Hope I can find parts but, a Service Manual is next on my list.

Thank you Faztbullet
for the extremely seedy reply!!!

"This only works on 1980 and later engines"

Incorrect. That system was only used in the 70s. In 1980 they started using the "INTRODUCES" code for year models.

Sorry I meant for that to read 1980 & earlier engines.. Thanks JB for the correction.
