motor and control information

[doug_wahl]

I have a 90hp Merc serial number 1892816. Can anyone tell me what year it is? Also I would like to find contol diagrams (in pieces currently) and repair manuals either online or printed. Thanks

Was this engine initially sold here in the US? If so, as near as I can tell, it's a 1965.<br /><br />c/6<br />Hooty

Check here for control diagrams. Scroll down the list for controls. There are a bunch, and the diagrams aren't exactly the clearest. These are parts diagrams which some of the old ones almost look like they were scanned in from a microfiche.<br />Being a 1965, it looks like your only choice for a service manual is the OEM manual. This manual covers every Merc from 1965 prior. They are still available from Mercury Marine (90-25500 - $35.95). I believe the parts manual is still available also. You may be able to pick one up fairly inexpensively on e-pay.<br /><br /> Edit: On the link, click on accessories and then scroll down. On the original link, the forum software didn't like the fact that another word for a donkey appeared in the link
