Engine Interface Cables for Honda BF50

Post by Falcon6086 »

Is anyone aware of what year the honda engines were built with the ability to hook up an engine interface cable? and if so do you know where it is on the engine?

If the engine model pre-dates 2005, no manufacturer had NMEA-2000 compatibility built in. It didn't become common until 2009.
