How to Identify Your 115 HP Model

  • Locate the nameplate/serial tag on the transom bracket or swivel bracket. Record the full model code and serial number.
  • Model codes often include horsepower, shaft length (e.g., S/L/XL), starting/controls (manual/electric; tiller/remote), and a year or revision suffix.
  • For 4-strokes, look for EFI designations and emissions labels. Many 115 HP platforms are inline-4 EFI engines; verify displacement and generation in your service manual.
  • Confirm gearcase type (standard vs. command thrust/big-foot variants) as propeller and water pump parts may differ.

FAQs

Are parts interchangeable between different years or platforms?

Often not. Water pump kits, anodes, filters, and ignition components can change with gearcase type, EFI generation, and serial range. Always verify by model and serial before ordering.

When should the impeller be replaced?

As a rule of thumb, replace the impeller every 2–3 seasons, or sooner if you operate in sandy/silty water or notice a weak tell‑tale stream or overheat indications.

How often should gear oil be changed?

Change at least every 100 hours or annually. If the drained oil appears milky or metallic, service seals and inspect internal components before further use.

What information do you need to confirm part compatibility?

Provide the full model code, serial number, shaft length, and any options (e.g., command thrust/big-foot). Photos of the nameplate and the part being replaced are also helpful.
