Hi Everyone,<br /><br /> I need to know what years and other statistics on these two motors, if you guys want to just tell me that is fine, but it would be great if you could give me a website so I don't have to bug you all every time. <br /><br />Merc 40 serial 2596802<br /><br />Merc 75 4D87666<br /><br />thanks

Re: merc years??

Here is a site that covers most modern motors.<br />Its in Swedish, but the numbers are the same and its easy to follow.<br />Load the homepage, click the "modellguide" button at the top right. Pretty easy to figure out after that.<br /><br /> http://www.marinshopen.se/ <br /><br />Could it be 4087666 instead of 4D87666....<br /><br />75 4085865 - 4314384 1975<br /><br />2596802<br />40 2498136 - 2771621 1969<br /><br />How many cylinders is that 40hp?

Thanks Roscoe,<br /><br /> Thats a big help. Actually they're 7.5hp and a 4hp. I think you're right about the years on both of them.

Re: merc years??

Thats what I figured, as it is only a 1 cylinder engine.<br /><br />In most cases, the same group of serial numbers are used throughout the hp ranges, within a given year.
