I am looking for a oem factory service manual for my new to me 1985 blackmax xr2 150 serial number A130347. I know I can order a new one from merc for $100 but I am cheap and see a lot of them on ebay for less than half of that. My problem is ordering the proper one because most of them have open ended serial ranges like 544332 and up. Where in the hell does the up stop? If anyone knows what the correct manual is or where I can find out what the correct manual is please let me know. EDIT

Thanks

Re: 1985 150 xr2 service manual

1985 is when they took the 7 digit # and started it with "A" and six digits. The S/N prior to 1985 would be like 5446332, '85-up should be like my '86 150-"A181421". Stay with OEM if ya can..more specific to what you will need.

I still don't know which manual is correct. I haven't seen any manuals with serial numbers beginning with A.
