I have a 4 cylinder 130hp 3.0 engine. For some reason the sticker label on the motor is blank where it should list my SN. Is there anywhere else I can find this? I've looked to no avail. Was hoping they have stamped it elsewhere.

I have the same engine in my boat. My white sticker on the valve cover is also blank. I found my engine serial number actually on the top cover of the flame arrestor, next to where it lists the spark plug type, firing order, etc. another place you can check is on the starboard side of the engine, next to the starter, on a little metal tag sticking out of the bell housing.

Thanks guys, I have yet to have a chance to get out to my boat and look. I checked the numbers on the flame arrestor to no avail. And searched everywhere for a tag. Hopefully I have better luck when I go out to look tomorrow. It's driving me nuts.

Thanks again!

Well, I made it to the boat this weekend. I've looked throughout the entire motor. I've searched every number I could find. Every number I found only told me what the part was it was located on. There is no aluminum tag, I assume it's been long gone I can't even find where one would have been at one time. Do I have any other options on locating this serial number so I can find the proper manual or am I out of luck?

Awesome, I will have to find the rest of it but, huge thanks! I was using manual 26 and knew it couldn't be correct.

I found it, It does list different dwell and different timing than listed in my valve cover. But it has a lot of my unanswered questions in it. Thanks again!
