F150 - Can't find Motor Model Code

[pberggren1]

Hi
Just bought a boat with a Yamaha F150A motor on.
I can not see any plates on the motor in order to know the modelnr.
I can see serialnumber on the motorblock.

I have some numbers in my papers : 63P-2819X-80
What year could this motor been produced?

I heard there should be some marking under the cowling?
Where can I find the model nr?


regards Peter

Normally that info is labeled on the bracket, port side. Bracket that attaches the motor to the boat....Big silver/grey aluminum thing that also contains trim/tilt rams that bolts to transom?

[pberggren1]

No motor marking available

I repeat once again, look at the attached Picture.
There is no plate on the bracket, I looked at both sides, nothing.
I dont know why there is no plate.

The only thing I have is the serial number on the motor block.

Serial number #6090845
There is also some numbers inside the cowler (molded in)
I dont know if they say anything.
UP-GF-30
63p-42611-00

Is this helpful?
Regards Peter

people that steal motors like to remove ID plates of motors so they are harder to trace

Hi
I dont this motor is stolen. The labels comes off quite easy, there is the problem.

Its more like stickers that falls off after some years.
I am working with local Yamaha dealer but they struggles to find answers.
Any more ideas?

Strange , I do not remember ever seeing a Yamaha motor that the tags just fell off of and I have seen some old ones.
being it is not a motor that was sold here in the states, I do not think many people over here will know much.

But Boscoe or someone not from the states might come up with something.

I haven't seen any tags fall off either.

Yam, is it still legal to shoot thieves in Texas? Used to be not too long ago.

Thought K was for a 1985 model year. So Yamaha made an F150 in 1985?

I believe the chart you were looking at was not for something made for markets outside the US

Hi
K standard for 2006 according to articles that I found.
Yamaha Sweden has still problems finding My motor in the databases.
To be continued....

What happened to the suggestion of reading number off of ECU?

[pberggren1]

Damn good question.

I read the OP's reply that he found what he was looking for in the form of the letter K that was telling somebody something.

I will look into that...

There is to few letters to keep track of all they years, it all starts over again. (BOHICA)

did you read the writing on that chart?

"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."
