question for SKOOLS,LORD SKOOLS

[phester]

I've never seen or heard of this on any OMC/JOHNSON, and to date, nor has anybody else I've asked...so hear it goes....my 150 oceanrunner says on the front of the motor cover[in sorta fancy lettering] "SILVER STAR SERIES"....any clue as to what that means??

[Skools Out]

Phester, just asked my John/Evin Dealer (also got my Honda there, so we can talk)...he said the Silver Star Series Ocean-Runners had Stainless Steel component upgrades for saltwater use...I asked about any ''performance'' issues and he said no performance upgrades...that should be a pretty darn good motor... ;)...

[Blue_Runner]

I was thinking the silver star was a motor that had been rebuilt by someone of Lordship status ;) but I stand corrected!

[Skools Out]

um no all Ocean Runners had Stainless bolts for Salt Use. But what color is it? It could be a Commerical version. The Model will tell all.

skools, I was just outside w/ a flashlight...model # is as follows J150EXENC,1993,motor is white w/ red lettering w/ some black highlights...thanks

[Skools Out]

ok here's your motor by the numbers

J150EXENC

J = Johnson
150 = HP rating
E = Electric Start
X = 25" Shaft
E = 9 First Number in the Year
N = 2 Second Number in the Year
C = Model Run with Sport Decals

so that is just a sport decal set lol and guess what it's a 1992 ???

[phester]
