Need year and manual

[WebbieWorks]

Can anyone tell me the year and where I can find a manual for my Mercury Outboard.

Serial Number - 5583411

I need to replaced the coil pack and I cannot figure out how to get it out.

Thanks.

Re: Need year and manual

I appreciate everyones responses. I ordered one from Barnes and Noble. It was the cheapest I could find.

I am not 100% sure it is the coils, It was a young guy I bought the boat from and now sure if he knew what he was doing.

He moved away so his mom was selling it for him and she didnt have a key so I have to get it re-keyed. Would it be easier to have it re-keyed or just buy another ignition switch for it?

I wont be able to test the motor until I get that done first, Correct?

Can anyone point me in the right direction for a new ignition switch?

I found this one, would it work with my motor?

Webbie, A Merc Dealer will likely have a key for it in stock. There are only a few keys for all the MerControls.

I appreciate it. I just called one and they can do it for $7-$10, so I guess I will carry the boat there.
