Re: Evinrude Model A? RBM – Help needed.

Ok,
Not to beat a dead horse but, the casting numbers on the individual parts will not get you any closer to identifying the exact year. The ID tag does that for you. I recently sold a motor that when I got it, it had parts covering the years 1913 to 1926 using the above mentioned spread sheet as a guide. Now using the sheet posted earlier you can use that to determine if any of the parts you have do not belong to a 1914 Model B. The ONLY sure identifier is that tag. It fits nicely within the serial number range for that year. As for all the other parts, you can add parts from a 1925 and they probably will still bolt right on. Your tank ID tag is 1914, 2 models that year, "A", or "B".

Pick which model you want and go that direction, the year is pretty concrete, but of course not one person alive today can verify that.

So which 1914 model will you have???

"A" ??????

or

"B" ?????

Cheers and get that thing back together !!!!!! 🙂
