In what years did johnson make the green outboard motors?

Question

I have a 50hp johnson out board motor and i want to find out what year it is. i know thats its about a 1979 but thats just from asking people i know. if someone has a web site that'd be cool.

Answer 1

Look for the model # on the motor. It should be on the transom mount/swing arm.

Answer 2

Or go this site, it is for Evinrude and Johnson OB motor questions. http://forums.iboats.com/forumdisplay.ph...

But they will need that model number from your motor too.
