I.D. info on 9.2 HP Chrysler Autoelectric

[Canamatt]

My Dad gave me this old 14' boat, a Royal Scott, built I'm guessing in the late 50's early 60's.
It came equipped with 2 motors, both Chryslers. A 45 HP and a 9.2 HP Autoelectric. These I'm assuming, were added later.
The 9.2 has electric start and seems to be in generally good shape, but I am getting very intermittent spark on both plugs. I removed the flywheel and the points and coils look good. In fact it appears as though it was put away freshly tuned (15 years ago!) I suspect the key switch or one of the safety switches.
I would like to buy a manual but I'm unsure of the year. It is a 9.2 HP Model 9742, S/N 1069. Engraved in the info plate at the top is the number 200792.
Can anyone help me with a year? It looks to have been a Canadian model manufactured in Barrie Ontario.
Thanks .....Canamatt

9742 is from 1967 so it is a chrysler and not a west bend. Try www.chryslercrew.com and buy a downloadable factory manual from them.

Re: I.D. info on 9.2 HP Chrysler Autoelectric

I am having a similar issue in finding the year of my 20hp Chrysler Autoelectric outboard. The model number is 2021 and the serial is 1323.
I am not getting any spark when hooking up to a battery and using the ignition key to try and start. If i knew the year i could possible find a repair manual.

any help would be appreciated.
