Suzuki Outboard Engine Serial Number Lookup
It is vital for the owner of a Honda outboard motor to know what year the motor was manufactured. Not knowing the model year of the motor will make it impossible to order the correct parts to repair the motor in some cases. Knowing the model year of the Honda outboard will also allow the owner to purchase the correct repair manual for the engine, so that repairs can be properly done by the owner. Although it may seem like a difficult task at first, determining the model year of the Honda outboard motor by using the serial number is really a very simple task.
Locate the serial number plate on the right side of the outboard, just beneath the engine cover and close to the transom.
Wipe any soil off the serial number plate with a shop rag, so that all of the numbers in the serial number can be read clearly. Record the serial number, using a pencil and a piece of paper.
- For Mercury outboards, the serial number label is located on the transom bracket. You can locate the MerCruiser serial number label on either the side of the engine or on top of the flame arrester cover.
- The serial number is a unique identifier of your engine and the key to efficient servicing and the correct ordering of parts. It can be found on the type plates and labels, as described below. For the exact appearance and location on your product, see the operator’s manual.

Scroll down to the Honda Marine section on the Website. Compare the serial number in question to the charts displayed on the website to determine the model year of the Honda outboard in question.
Tip
The model year of a Honda outboard motor can only be determined by using the serial number through the 2006 model year. Contact a Honda Marine dealer for information on how to determine the model year of Honda outboard motors after the 2006 model year, because Honda stopped using model year designators in the serial number beginning with the 2007 model year.
