Re: Johnson 9.9 IDENTIFICATION

None of those numbers helps identify this motor. The number on the welch plug (silver plug on the top of the engine) is just the serial number. There should be a tag or plate on the side of the transom clamps that has the model and serial number.

Here's a few things to help narrow it down:

Is the motor painted green or white? If green, 76 and older. White, 77 and newer.

Where is the stop button? If it's on the front of the engine cowling it'll be a early 86 and older. If it's anywhere on the tiller handle, late 86 and newer.

Check out this website. One of our forum members (the machinist) put together a great website on the OMC 9.9 and 15 HP series:
