Year?

[MR. Bess]

I just purchased a Johnson motor J115TLCO. What might the year model be?

Re: Year?

Welcome to Iboats, Mr Bess!<br /><br />J - Johnson<br />115 - 115hp<br />T - Tilt&trim<br />L - Longshaft (20" transom)<br />CO - '85<br />The date code works like this:<br />INTRODUCES<br />1234567890<br />So ER would be '94, since E = 9 and R = 4.<br />Enjoy your new outboard!
