My neighbour has a Mercury 70HP, 3-cylinder outboard. I convinced him it's time to do an impellor change so I did a serial number check using about 8 sites where these are listed, but couldn't find it.

The serial number, recorded on the plate on the port side of the transom bracket, is
8022278A

Any advice on what year this would be?

Also would anyone be able to identify the impellor number and the complete pump rebuild kit number?

Thanx in advance.

That serial number falls into tha 65hp 3 cly Aussi version range. Tha 70 hp numbers start at 8042350. A indicates Aus.
Not positive about all this. It gets kinda tricky with tha AUS numbers and horsepower/year....................

Thank you Dukedog. I couldn't find an Aussie list.
