What year is my Johnson motor.

[wdm2]

Hi, can anyone help on finding year of my 90hp Johnson. Can't read the tags on the trim bracket. Got the following numbers from the engine plug. J90TLCUR, and at the bottom is R7568090. Thanks..Walt.

Go by this:
I = 1 N = 2 T = 3 R = 4 O = 5 D = 6 U = 7 C = 8 E = 9 S = 0
If you figure it out, it's a '87.
