    9.8 hp vs 9.9 hp outboard engines

    The only thing I will disagree with there is the Merc 9.9 started out on the smaller block. It shared the 6/8 hp block it did not go to the 15 hp block until early to mid 90s.

    100, 115, or 140?

    115 and 140 are the same block if you believe that the 140 is powerhead rated and the 115 is prop rated. I think RPH means Rebuilt/replaced powerhead.

Those lower units are not strong and expensive to replace. If your motor has the knob for the primer see if it turns to the left. That knob...

    Is this a MERCURY Mercury, or a Force Mercury?

    That is a Mercury 3 cylinder 90 hp. Not a force and it looks just like a 94 Merc.

    Top RPM for a 75 hp is 5800 rpm and you need to be propped to hit that. They are not great low end motors.
