    Default lower unit needed...


    I have never needed one before, but I am searching for a 68' 20-hp mercury lower unit. Does anyone have any suggestions, or one they have laying around somewhere?

    The cowling is the cover on the motor. It will have a colored stripe that goes around it. You can tell the time period, the motor was made by this stripe, if you can't tell by the serial number. I have a 20hp Merc. built around that time, but can't remember exact year. The stripe around the cal. is RED

    I would first check E-bay.

    Then go to http://www.themarinedoctor.com/cgi-bin/YaBB.pl

    There you can find all the info you need.

    I read the serial number to another boat motor guy here, and he told me that it is a 1968 model. He didn't have any. I can get the serial number if you still need it...let me know. Also, how much for one?
