THIS IS A VERY UNUSUAL WAY TO START OFF THE DESCRIPTION OF THIS KIT – BUT — HERE GOES:
PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS KIT UNLESS YOU ARE CERTAIN ABOUT WHAT DRIVE IT IS THAT YOU HAVE
!!
THE ALPHA ONE DRIVE AND THE ALPHA ONE, GEN 2 DRIVE
ARE
VERY DIFFERENT OUTDRIVES
.
THIS KIT
DOES NOT FIT
THE ALPHA ONE, GEN 2 OUTDRIVE
THIS KIT
DOES NOT FIT
THE ALPHA ONE, GEN 2 OUTDRIVE
THIS KIT
DOES NOT FIT
THE ALPHA ONE, GEN 2 OUTDRIVE
I HAVE TO BE VERY CLEAR ABOUT THIS TO SAVE BOTH YOU AND I LOTS OF POTENTIAL TROUBLES.
IF YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT OUTDRIVE IT IS THAT YOU HAVE, IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT YOU FIND OUT. YOU WILL NEED TO KNOW YOUR
OUTDRIVE
SERIAL NUMBER AND THEN CHECK IT WITH THE CHART BELOW.
MERCURY PARTS GETTING FACTS, TO MAKE LIFE SIMPLER
:
1) MERCURY DOES NOT RECOGNIZE WHAT BOAT IT IS THAT YOU HAVE.
2) MERCURY DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THE YEAR OF YOUR OUTDRIVE OR ENGINE – FOR PARTS GETTING PURPOSES.
3) MERCURY BASES ALL PARTS GETTING ON SERIAL NUMBERS ONLY
4) MERCURY UNFORTUNATELY NEVER PRODUCED A DECAL OR STICKER THAT SHOWS “COMMA GEN 2” (ALPHA ONE, GEN 2).  ******MERCURY’S ALPHA ONE OUTDRIVE AND THEIR ALPHA ONE GEN 2 OUTDRIVES BOTH HAD ONLY AN “ALPHA ONE” DECAL SHOWN ON THEIR OUTDRIVES****.  HERE IS WHAT MERCURY DIDN’T DO WHEN THEY STARTED PRODUCING THE ALPHA ONE, GEN 2 OUTDRIVE, SOMETIME IN 1991: THEY DID NOT PRODUCED A “COMMA GEN 2” ADDITIONAL DECAL TO ADD TO “ALPHA ONE” THAT IS SHOWN ON THEIR OUTDRIVES – THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN VERY HELPFUL TO STOP THE CONFUSION ABOUT WHAT OUTDRIVE IT IS.
TRS or TR Drive? — call or write before ordering.
THREE SERIAL NUMBERS TO BE CONCERNED WITH
:
1)
OUTDRIVE SERIAL NUMBER
(SOME CALL IT DRIVE SERIAL NUMBER) NEEDED TO GET OUTDRIVE PARTS (THE OUTDRIVE CONSISTS OF THE UPPER GEARCASE AND THE LOWER UNIT).
2)
ENGINE SERIAL NUMBER
(IF YOU NEED ENGINE PARTS)
3)
TRANSOM SERIAL NUMBER
(LESS IMPORTANT – BUT RECORD THIS NUMBER).
WHEN YOU FIND THESE THREE SERIAL NUMBERS, PUT THEM IN PLASTIC AND KEEP THEM IN YOUR WALLET, BECAUSE LIFE WITH A MERCURY PRODUCT WILL BE MUCH EASIER.
WHERE ARE THESE SERIAL NUMBERS LOCATED ON YOUR UNIT??  GOOGLE:  “MERCRUISER SERIAL NUMBER LOCATE”
AFTER YOU FIND YOUR OUTDRIVE SERIAL NUMBER – THEN YOU CAN LOOK AT THE TWO CHARTS BELOW TO SEE IF YOU HAVE EITHER:
1) AN ALPHA ONE OUTDRIVE
OR
2) AN ALPHA ONE, GEN 2 OUTDRIVE
REMEMBER, THIS KIT
WILL NOT FIT THE ALPHA ONE, GEN 2 OUTDRIVE
.
THIS IS A KIT FOR THE ALPHA ONE OUTDRIVE
