I have a 753 with the k161 engine and I think it is a 1962 but is it made In 1963 instaed because that is the only year I can find other 753s.

1963 only.  The third digit (or last digit) is the year made, i.e 753 means it was made in 1963.  The first digit is the hp, the second digit indicates electric start.

:text-yeahthat:but I'm curious as to why you think it was made in 62. Is it possible that you do have a 62 but a belt guard from a 753 was put on it? Post a picture of it showing the front axle. There's a distinct difference between the 62 and 63.

Chances are the serial number tag starts with a 62; the early 953s did too.
