its an 86,pull the carb off and do a cleaning by soaking in a carb cleaner,none of the cheap spray,that is fine after its soaked,be sure you remove any rubber or plastic parts first,change gear oil and impeller

Re: what year is my 6hp evinrude

Its not a 6 hp according to that model number its a 4 hp.
I reckon fitted with the cover from a 6 hp.

E = Evinrude
4 = 4 hp
R = rope start
D = de-luxe model ( has FNR gears)
H = No integral fuel tank
L = long shaft
CD = 1986
