I have an old twin cylinder outboard motor made by Outboard Motors Corporation in Milwaukee Wisconsin. I have the serial number, 4092350 but would like to know model number and year of manufacture. Any help with this would be appreciated. Thanks.

That number is too big to be a serial number. A model 4092 is a is a 1935 Weedless Fisherman 4.0 HP.

Send pics of the ID plate and the whole motor.

After doing more research I’m pretty sure the model number is 409 and year of manufacture is 1932.

Yours is a Sportwin. Here's a 1934 Fisherman, which is also a twin cylinder 4 HP. Yours would have looked quite similar and the decal would have been almost the same.

Would you happen to know where I could purchase new spark plugs and wires for my 32 Sportwin 4 hp?

Take your existing plug to any auto parts store. They should be able to look kit up and cross reference it if needed. Wire is sold by the foot and they should have that too. You'll need to solder it in to replace the ones you have now.
