Identify the Force outboard using a model designation key. For example, model numbers '43F7A' and ' 903F90A' decode as follows: '4' and '90' identify the outboard's horsepower; in this case, 4-horsepower and 90-horsepower, respectively.

The '3' in both examples refers to a long-leg outboard with no power trim, while the letter 'F' stands for Force. The '7' and '90' digits correspond to the year, with '7' indicating 1987 and '90' indicating 1990. The final position stands for any engineering changes made to the engine; in this case, 'A' identifies the outboard's first modification.
