The EPA emissions label on the side of the outboard shows the year the outboard was manufactured, however, this should not be confused with the "Model Year" of the outboard.

  Outboard motor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Outboard motors for a boat are developed as a self-contained unit with engine, subsidiary systems, and propeller, designed to be mounted at the stern (rear) of the craft.
Small outboard motors are truly self-contained, with integral fuel tanks and controls mounted on the body of the motor and steered by a "tiller" directly connected to the motor.
Historically, most outboards have used two-stroke cycle engines due to their simplicity (and consequent reliability), low cost, and high power-to-weight ratios - weight issues being particularly important as too much weight over the stern of boats tends to impede their handling.

If an outboard is operated without a thermostat installed, it will surely suffer in some way from poor performance all the way to causing internal damage.
An outboard is designed to operate at specific engine temperatures, and if it does not obtain that temperature, it will run very sluggishly, and also cause fuel/oil mixture to not totally burn, which causes excessive carbon buildup.
Carbon buildup in an outboard is one of its worst enemies.

 Duckworks Magazine - Books - Old Outboard Books   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
It was advertised as the book to buy if one wanted to buy a cheap, old outboard and "fix it up." I bought a copy and discovered that the advertising was a little off-base, in that the book was aimed more at collectors of outboards than "cheap power" seekers.
There are sections on the history of specific outboard companies and their relations to one another that can be of great value when one is looking for parts for an obscure outboard.
My copy of "The Old Outboard Book" receives less use, since I am now able to recognize most old outboards, but I will still drag it out to verify an exact year of manufacture, or for the occasional oddity that comes along.

 Ethanol and Outboard Engines - risks vs. adavantages
The negative effects ethanol will have on your outboard motor - will likely force you to buy a new outboard sooner than expected (after ethanol destroys your old motor).
In the meantime, marine mechanics, including me - The Outboard Wizard, have had a sudden surge in repair jobs at their shops due to damage directly attributed to the gasoline (ethanol/alcohol) blends) now found at most gas pumps.
On a positive note, the newer outboard engines (Evinrude E-Tec), are designed to be compatible with ethanol fuel.

Tohatsu/Nissan outboard shafts are measured from the bottom of the engine mounting bracket to the cavitation plate on the lower unit.
For smaller outboards, the simplest way to flush your outboard is by using a large bucket of water.
With 4hp-140hp outboards you can either use the optional “flushing plug” which can be attached to a hose for flushing the engine with fresh water or purchase a set of “ear muffs” (highly recommended, inexpensive, and available at virtually every marine dealer).

Although Force Outboards lacked the technological sophistication of the major outboard brands, their price advantage was significant.
