merc 140 serial number -confused!

[pugsley]

Just purchased 1985 Glastron boat and need to find the correct service manual. This boat came from Canada with little information. Having searched posts and parts suppliers, my numbers don't seem to match anything. I beleive that it is the original motor but? It is a 4 cly 140. (MCM140) I assume 3,0 GM block. I have 3 tags by merc. 1. Motor- A540698. 2 Transom assy -A582613. 3. Drive A515848. There is another stamped tag- MO 7055RA. At the cost of these manuals, I want to be sure to buy the correct version. # 10 appears to be correct? Thank you in advance.

Re: merc 140 serial number -confused!

Thanks, your info was very helpful. It is the GM 181 cid 4 cyl presumably 1985. I am searching for the correct manual. I see #10 on ebay and #26. Both say they are for GM 4cyl mercs. Anyone know which is correct or best.
