Help Identifying Evinrude / Johnson Motor

[Percykwong]

So I have this motor on this boat. No identifying marks, but this tag. I've been to the Evinrude Site and tried to decipher the model number, but can't seem to figure out what more it is exactly.

Can anyone help? I'm really looking for the model / year so that I can get a hold of the manual for some rewiring / retune work.

Any help would be appreciated.

Also, if anyone does have experience with this motor, any thoughts / experiences you can share about it would be great

Cheers.

Not knowing for certain but it looks like it could be a 2001 115 HP Johnson OB. The first four numbers/letters show up in the 2001 Johnson parts section of boats.com sight. And the 01 seems to be the year. But it may just be a coincidence too...

It is a 1981 Johnson J115TLCIM 115hp Outboard Motor.

Thanks PPL I figured out that the "1" is referred to as an "I" in the model #.. That's what was throwing me. I'm used to seeing that in Europe, but not from a US company.
