For engines built prior tocontact any Mercury Marine dealer. If your Mercury outboard is a model, or newer, you can use the online Mercury Parts Catalog to look up the model year.Įnter the engine's serial number in the block provided and you get the engine's model year and a comprehensive parts list.
