The 9.9 hp and its 15 HP was not introduced until 1974 and the exhaust travels through the propeller hub.

The number on the silver disc is not a serial number so we cannot go by that.
The motor and cover has been repainted and model year 2000 decals were installed on the sides of the cover.
The electric start wiring looks older than the motor and the engine block appears to be mid-1980s . My guess is the electric starter was added as a kit or came from another motor. Luckily most parts were similar over the years. The first 30 HP of that family of engines came out in 1984.

Hello Bill,
Sorry to keep putting you to work. I've got an old 30 hp Evinrude that I've had a few problems with, and the bad luck of a slew of crappy marine engine mechanics that have caused even more issues. So I've decided to try my hand at getting the motor in shape but want to get a manual for the motor. There's no plate to id the motor so was hoping for help. The marine shop I bought it from said it was an 86, but a friend said there was no way because the decals and a few thing were wrong for an 86 so I'm hoping you can help out. Here' are the pics I've got let me know if it's enough.
The motor was running fine until last weekend when part of the throttle linkage snapped, and part of a bracket got bent, and some wiring got damaged. It appears to me that the last person who worked ont he motor didn't properly tighten a part under the flywheel and when it came loose it damaged the motor.
On that note, can anyone suggest a good manual for this motor?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

the motor cover decals appear to be from the 1989-1991 era.

Thanks Bill,
Is there anything about the motor that would suggest a particular year?
Does it matter which service manual I get, or are the motors pretty similar over 89 to 91?
I was looking at the service manual for model E30ECED.
Thanks!

For the most part, the engines are pretty much alike. If there are any differences, you can find them by looking up the parts for the various years at shop2.evinrude.com and compare part numbers
