    1996 Mercury 175 - serial number

    I have sticker on my engine that's completed faded and I can't read the serial number. I thought there was a metal plate underneath so I pealed it off and nothing was there except the sticker residue with printed 'Void'

    Is there another place to find the serial number?

    It should be on a Welch plug or freeze plug on top of one of the cylinder banks,usually back nearer the heads. Look for a 1" aluminum disc.

    Found it. There was a disc shaped aluminum tag right where you said it was. Thank you!
