What year is my outboard?

[marineer]

Hi i am new to this forum. First of all sorry for my English. I have a problem regarding my outboard's manufacturer, year and manual.
My outboard serial is 15ML 684C L 344006, can please anyone tell me the year of my outboard and who actually is the manufecturer because i am confused between Mariner & Yamaha.

Please can anyone tell me where can i find the owner's manual 37-13020 of this outboard?


Regards

Chris

Chris;

In your first post you ask for the year of manufacture, yet in your second post, you say you know for sure it was made in 1989. How do you know that?
Do you know if your engine is one of these models as these are the ones for 1989:

701520 1PC
701520 1PD
701521 1PC
701521 1PD

This appears to be your engine parts for you, Just find your serial number range and click.

I'm just kind of curious on where you found the merc part number for the owner's manual 37-13020, Because this number come up as,
"DECAL-SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS" And the Customer cannot buy.

So I don't believe this is going to be a owner's manual, Because normally any type of manual from merc will start off with 90-***** in their part numbers.

Also mercury's 37- number is going to be the class # for their decals, For example, 37-11927M is a SIDE DECAL SET, See number 2 in the link below.

Good luck with it.

Re: What year is my outboard?

Your right about the year the starting serial number in 1989 was 684-341157 and in 1990 was 684-346712. Built in Japan as a manual start, long shaft engine in 1989. The manual should start with a 90- not a 37- just as Fun Times said.
