hi guys. by some chance, i found a used outboard motor within my price range. it's 2stroke evinrude 10hp from 1980-1999.
the model number is se10rpf. yes, that is what the tag says. and that's why i need help. i've read all of available model number decoders, and i can't find the explanation for the last letter/s. the feaures part of the model number could read as R for rope start or RP for commercial, but the "F" is what realy bugs me.
for what it's worth, the serial number is g02954251. see? there it is again! :x aren't evinrudes in this era supposed to start with "E"?
the tag looks genuine and untampered.
maybe some of you guys have info that might shed light.
more questions:
1. are there any issues with 10hp evinrudes from 1980-1999? are parts available on-line? as far as i know, there's no evinrude dealer in my country, so i will have to buy parts from the USA.
2. the seller wants $700 for it. no tank and lines, needs a new impeller. good deal?
thanks in advance!
