  • The serial number from hell!

    I bought a used boat like many and I have a 9.9 Yamaha 4 stroke kicker which I need to replace the impeller. It's like I have the serial number from Hell! I cannot find anything around the internet that shows me exactly what I got! The nameplate reads (pic below) F9.9LG 6G9 L 302168. What I have found through my searches is that I have either a 1985, 1993,94 or 95 motor? I'm trying to find the impeller kit. Can anyone steer me in the right direction? Thanking everyone in advance!

    I think you want repair kit # 682-W0078-A1-00. That's for '84-'04 F9.9 models.

      doesn't seem to be a US model, right?

      but going by this document, perhaps a 1988

      This Yamaha outboard year model chart will only work for Asia Pacific distributed engines. If you have a Yamaha engine that has been bought in from America or Europe direct the parts will still be the same but your model and year model code will be different. You will have to use your own knowledge of your engine to se

        Methinketh the problem is not with the serial number but rather this is operator error.

              apparently
              so what did I mess up in entering the PID?
              tried it twice and no return.

                Older models sometimes won't work in the search box. I suspect that Yamaha does not have adequate records from that long ago. Hell, even their current records (data) is suspect. lol

                    When you get to the link you posted, click on 1988. What is the last letter of every model that you see?

                    Then click on 1987. What do you see?

                      Yes as usual you are correct.

                      I was just pointing out that this chart could cause some confusion. The chart you posted dosnt have this mistake.

                      I think I sent boats.net a message a few years ago about it...but it is still there.

                        I came from aviation where data is supposed to be correct. Yamaha data drives me crazy.
