SAFETY NOTICE,
Proper service and repair procedures are vital to the safe, reliable operation-of all marine engines, as well as
the personal safety of those performing repairs. This manual outlines procedures for servicing and repairing
engines and drive systems using safe, effective methods. The procedures contain many NOTES, CAUTIONS
and WARNINGS which should be followed, along with standard procedures, to minimize the possibility of
personal injury or improper service which could damage the vehicle or compromise its safety.
It is important to note that repair procedures and techniques, tools and parts for servicing these engines, as
well as the skill and experience of the individual performing the work, vary widely. It is not possible to anticipate
all of the conceivable ways or conditions under which the engine may be serviced, or to provide cautions as to
all possible hazards that may result. Standard and accepted safety precautions and equipment shoid be used
during cutting, grinding, chiseling, prying, or any other process that can cause material removal or projectiles.
Some procedures require the use of tools specially designed for a specific task. Before substituting another
tool or procedure, you must be completely satisfied that neither your personal safety nor the performance of the
vessel, will be endangered. All procedures covered in this manual requiring the use of special tools will be noted
at the beginning of the procedure by means of an OEM symbol
Additionally, any procedure requiring the use of
a
n electronic tester or scan tool will be noted at the beginning
of the procedure by means of a DVOM symbol
�
-�+
Although information in this manual is based on industry sources and is complete as possible at the time of
publication, the possibility exists that some manufacturers made later changes which could not be included here.
While striving for total accuracy, Seloc Publishing cannot assume responsibility for any errors, chaQges or
omissions that may occur in the compilation of this data. We must therefore warn you to follow instructions
carefully, using common sense. If you are uncertain of a procedure, seek help by inquiring with someone in your
area who is familiar with these motors before proceeding.
PART NUMBERS _
,
�
Part numbers listed in this reference are not recommendations by Seloc Publishing for any particular product
brand name, simply iterations of the manufacturer's suggestions. They are also references that can be used with
interchange m· anuals and aftermarket supplier catalogs to locate each brand supplier's discrete pa number.
SPECIAL TOOLS .
. .
Special tools are recommended by the manufacturers to perfom a specific job. Use has been kept to a
minimum, but, where absolutely necessary, they are referred to in the text by the part number of the
manufacturer if
a
t all possible; and also noted at the beginnin� of each procedure with one of the following
symbols: OEM or DVOM.
The OEM symbol usually denotes the need for a unique tool purposely designed to accomplish a specific task,
it will also be used, less frequently, to notify the reader of the need for a tool that is not commonly. found in the
average tool box .
The DVOM symbol is used to denote the need for an electronic test tool like an ohmmeter, multi-meter or, on
cetain later engines, a scan tool.
These tools can be_ purchased, under the appropriate part number, from your local dealer or regional
distributor, or an equivalent tool can be purchased locally from a tool supplier or pas outlet. Before substituting
any tool for the one recommended, read the SAFETY NOTICE at the top of this page.
Providing the correct mix of service and repair procedures is an endless battle for any publisher of "How-To"
information. Users range from first time do-it yourselfers to professionally trained marine technicians, and
information important to one is frequently irrelevant to the other. The editors at Seloc Publishing strive to provide
accurate and articulate information on all facets of marine engine repair, from the simplest procedure to the most
complex. In doing this, we understand that certain procedures may be outside the capabilities of the average
DIVer. Conversely we are aware that many procedures are unnecessary for a trained technician.

In order to provide all of- our users, paicularly the DIVers, with a feeling for the scope of a given procedure or
task before tackling it we have included a rating system denoting the suggested skill level needed when
performi g a paicular procedure. One of the following icons will be included at the beginning of most
procedu es:
EASY. These procedures are aimed primarily at the DIVer and can be classified, for
the mos a, as basic maintenance procedures; battery, fluids, filters, plugs, etc. Although certainly valuable to
any ex e ·ence level, they will generally be of little importance to a technician.
MODERAT E. These procedures are suited for a DIVer with experience and a
working knowledge of mechanical procedures. Even an advanced DIVer or professional technician will
occasionally refer to these procedures. They will generally consist of component repair and seice procedures,
adjustments and minor rebuilds.
-
DIFFICULT. These procedures are aimed at the advanced DIVer and professional
technician. They will deal with diagnostics, rebuilds and internal engine/drive components and will frequently
require special tools.
SKILLED. These procedures are aimed at highly skilled technicians and should not
be attempted without previous experience. They will usually consist of machine work, internal engine work and
gear case rebuilds.
Please remember one thing when considering the above ratings-they are a guide for judging the complexity
of a given procedure and are subjective in nature. Only you will know what your experience level is, and only
you will know when a procedure may be outside the realm of your capability. First time DIVer, or life-long marine
technician, we all approach repair and service differently so an easy procedure for one person may be a difficult
procedure for another, regardless of experience level. All skill level ratings are meant to be used as a guide only!
Use them to help make a judgement before undeaking a particular procedure, but by all means read through
the procedure first and make your own decision-after all, our mission at Seloc is to make boat maintenance
_and repair easier for everyone whether you are changing the oil or rebuilding an engine. Enjoy boating!
