Chapter One
General Information
This detailed, comprehensive manual contains
complete information covering maintenance,
repair and overhaul. Hundreds of photos and
drawings guide you throughout every proce-
dure.
Troubleshooting, tune-up, maintenance and
repair are not difficult if you know what tools
and equipment to use and what to do. Anyone
not afraid to get their hands dirty, of average in-
telligence and with some mechanical ability can
perform most ofthe procedures in this manual.
See Chapter Two for more information on tools
and techniques.
A shop manual is a reference. You want to be
able to find information quickly. Clymer books
are designed with you in mind. All chapters are
thumb tabbed and important items are indexed
at the end ofthe manual. All procedures, tables,
photos and instructions in this manual assume
the reader may be working on the machine or us-
ing the manual for the first time.
Keep the manual in a handy place in your tool-
box or boat. It will help you to better understand
how your boat runs, lower repair and
maintenance costs and generally increase your
enjoyment of your boat.
MANUAL ORGANIZATION
This chapter provides general infonnation
useful to boat owners and marine mechanics.
Chapter Two discusses the tools and tech-
niques for preventative maintenance, trouble-
shooting and repair.
Chapter Three provides troubleshooting and
testing procedures for all systems and individual
components.
Following chapters describe specific systems,
providing disassembly, inspection, assembly
and adjustment procedures in simple step-by-
step form. Specifications concerning a specific
system are included at the end ofthe appropriate
chapter.



CHAPTER ONE
NOTES, CAUTIONS
AND WARNINGS
The terms NOTE, CAUTION and WARNING
have specific meanings in this manual. A NOTE
provides additional information to make a step
or procedure easier or more clear. Disregarding
a NOTE could cause inconvenience, but would
not cause damage or personal injury.
A CAUTION emphasizes areas where equip-
ment damage could cause permanent mechani-
cal damage; however, personal injury is
unlikely.
A WARNING emphasizes areas where per-
sonal injury or even death could result from neg-
ligence. Mechanical damage may also occur.
WARNINGS must be taken seriously. In some
cases, serious injury or death has resulted from
disregarding similar warnings.
TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS
Torque specifications throughout this manual
are given in foot-pounds (ft.-lb.), inch-pounds
(in.-lb.) and newton meters (N»m.). Newton me-
ters are being adopted in place of me-
ter-kilograms (mkg) in accordance with the
Intemational Modernized Metric System. Ex-
isting torque wrenches calibrated in me-
ter-kilograms can be used by performing a
simple conversion: move the decimal point one
place to the right. For example, 4.7 mkg = 47
N»m. This conversion is accurate enough for
most mechanical operations even though the ex-
act mathematical conversion is 3.5 mkg = 34.3
N»m.
ENGINE OPERATION
All marine engines, whether two or
four-stroke, gasoline or diesel, operate on the
Otto cycle of intake, compression, power and
exhaust phases.
Two-Stroke Cycle
A two-stroke engine requires one crankshaft
revolution (two strokes of the piston) to com-
plete the Otto cycle. All engines covered in this
manual are a two-stroke design. Figure 1 shows
gasoline two-stroke engine operation.
Four-Stroke Cycle
A four-stroke engine requires two crankshaft
revolutions (four strokes of the piston) to com-
plete the Otto cycle. Figure 2 shows gasoline
four-stroke engine operation.
FASTENERS
The material and design ofthe various fasten-
ers used on marine equipment are careftiUy
thought out and designed. Fastener design deter-
mines the type of tool required to work with the
fastener. Fastener material is carefully selected
to decrease the possibility of physical failure or
corrosion. See Galvanic Corrosion in this chap-
ter for information on marine materials.
Nuts, bolts and screws are manufactured in a
wide range of thread patterns. To join a nut and
bolt, the diameter ofthe bolt and the diameter of
the hole in the nut must be the same. It is just as
important that the threads are compatible.
The easiest way to determine if fastener
threads are compatible is to turn the nut on the
bolt, or bolt into its threaded opening, using fin-
gers only. Be sure both pieces are clean. If much
force is required, check the thread condition on
each fastener. If the thread condition is good but
the fasteners jam, the threads are not compati-
ble.
Four important specifications describe the
thread:
1. Diameter.
2. Threads per inch.
3. Thread pattern.
