I bought an older fishing boat that came with a nice running Evinrude 15 hp motor on it. It appears that a previous owner at some time repainted it. The model/serial number tag has been removed/lost. The only number I can find on it is on the silver plug on the side of the engine case. Those numbers are 878275 with an "M" above it. I have attached some pictures of the motor. I have more if needed.
On the inside of the cowling is the 15 hp and rpms along with starting instructions.
I have searched all over the internet trying to find a similar motor. I would like to know model and year so I can have a reference for maintenance, parts, etc. The last owner said he was using a 32:1 fuel / oil ratio, but all I found about Evinrudes was 24:1 and 50:1 for older motors depending on year.
Thanks
