I purchased a boat last week with a inline 6 on it, the rap around cover say's 1500 on it. When I do the SR# search for it(3651338) it comes back no match found?? I woudl like to buy a
manual but want to make sure I get the right one. Was hoping someone could help. I found the SR# on the starboard side of the motor.

Thanks, Mike

That s/n comes up as:

From here:

In the interim, here is a link to the condensed version of the Clymer manual to help you get started. Download it soonest to your computer as the link is short lived.

Thanks Gerry, I'm trying to get it tuned up and thought the correct manual would help!! I"ve had it on the water once, had a tuff time getting to idle and the tach didnt work. Found stator wires broke( Repaired) tach still not working though. Spent yesterday trying to do link and sink but could'nt get the timing light to work on 2 cycle. It is a new craftsman, ever had heard of any issue with timing light not working on a outboard??

Timing light should work fine on two cycle motors.
