I am trying to find out the model number for my Mercury 175. I have looked everywhere and the only thing I can find is the serial number which is 6334945. Can anyone help?

That serial (production number) is for a 1983 model. The problem I have is, Merc didn't produce a 175 in 1983. So not quite sure what you have to start with.
Secondly, unlike OMC where the model gives you what you need to know Merc doesn't really deal with model numbers for parts/assessories etc - is there a particular reason you need a model number?
Your engine is not a 175, It is a 1983 MERCURY 2.4L 200 ELPT Model Number 1200623.Well the reason I said it's a 175hp is thats what the shell said and the guy we bought it from. Is there a way to find out for sure what it is?
