Does any one know how to tell the year of an old johnson super sea horse out board boat motor?

Question

serial#E05589 model#75393E

Answer 1

EO is a 1995

Answer 2

gmc has the answer for you....

...but I suppose you could always cut it in half and count the rings?

j/k, enjoy that motor. They won't be making the Johnson line anymore! :(

Answer 3

the year of the outboard motor should be on the motor number which should be located on the motor (number may be longish but the last digits should tell the year). I am assuming there is no manual with either the boat or the motor> Have you tried contacting johnson and johnson who made the motor?

Answer 4

that motor is a 1963 75 hp model made on the evinrude line    many johnson motors were actually evinrudes and vice versa the "E" in the model and serial # referance the Evinrude line and a "J" would mean johnson   as to the person who used EO from the word code that did not start until the 1980 model year     ps have model year guide for all omc from 1913-present

Answer 5

In the 50.s the last digit in the serial number is the year
