Need Motor ID

[epresutti]

Folks,<br /><br />I am trying to ID the motor on my boat, purchased used, was told was an OMC/Johnson 140.<br /><br />I located two numbers on a plate on the shaft, could find no other markings, they are:<br />Model # J140TXCNB(D) <- could not make out last digit completely<br />Serial # J5699527<br /><br />Near as I can tell the model number means:<br />J140 - 140 hp. Johnson<br />T - Tiller Stearing?<br />X - 25" Shaft (known to be a 25)<br />CN - 1982 (?)<br />B (D?) - Model Change<br /><br />Any Help would be greatly appreciated, I am a new poster to this forum.<br /><br />Thanks in advance.<br /><br />emp.

I come up with:<br /><br />CN = 1982<br /><br />

Thanks fone_man,<br /><br />any ideas of the other coding?<br /><br />Worried the suffix is going to effect parts, just want to know the other stuff.<br /><br />Thanks again,<br /><br />Ed

Just a guess but I would imagine the "T" is for tilt as opposed to tiller steer.<br /><br /><br />Bob
