From your other posts I guess you already know that the powerhead is made by Clinton. This source pins the BJ9 as a 1969.

thank you for the info and i was looking for the fuel connector for the external gas tank located on the handle. also the motor tilt bolt, the bolt to adjust it that is. and why do you ask if "i named her sophie"?

Haha....I thought you had posted a picture on one of your other posts that was entitled sophie1.jpg or something like that.

I might be confusing you with someone else; but a lot of folks name their motors....

Sophia then?
