Emission Maintenance Procedures are explained in the Indmar Operator’s Manual.
California Emission Control Warranty Statement
Your Warranty Rights and Obligations
The California Air Resources Board and Indmar Products are pleased to explain the emission control system
warranty on your inboard engine. In California, new inboard engines must be designed, built and equipped to meet the
State’s stringent anti-smog standards. Indmar Products must warranty the emission control system in your inboard engine
for the time listed below, provided there has been no abuse, neglect or improper maintenance of your inboard engine.
You emission control system may include parts such as the carburetor or fuel injection system, the ignition sys-
tem, and catalytic converter. Also included may be hoses, belts, connectors and other emission-related assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists, Indmar Products will repair your inboard engine at no cost to you,
including diagnosis, parts and labor.
Manufacturer’s Warranty Coverage
Select emission control parts from a model-year 2003-2008 inboard engines are warranted for two (2) years.
Select emission control parts from model-year 2009 and later are warranted for three (3) years.
However, warranty coverage based on the hourly period is only permitted for outboard engines and personal
watercraft equipped with appropriate hourmeters or their equivalent. If any emission-related part on your engine is
defective under warranty, parts will be repaired or replaced by Indmar Products.
Owner’s Warranty Responsibilities
As the inboard engine owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance listed in
your owner’s manual. Indmar Products recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance on your inboard
engine, but Indmar Products cannot deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or your failure to ensure the perfor-
mance of all scheduled maintenance.
As the inboard engine owner, you should be aware that Indmar Products may deny you warranty coverage if
your inboard engine or part has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved modifications.
You are responsible for presenting your inboard engine to an Indmar Products distribution center as soon as a
problem exists. The warranty repairs will be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.
If you have any questions regarding your warranty rights and responsibilities, you should contact the Indmar
Director of Customer Service at 1-901-353-9930.
NOTE: Adjusting engine timing should not be attempted unless you have the proper tools and
equipment. An improperly timed engine can be severely damaged. Do not attempt to start the
engine unless the boat is in the water or an adequate supply of cooling water is applied directly
to the cooling water intake.
Electronic Fuel-Injected Engines
Note: The MasterCraft RTP-1, LQ9 and 8.1Liter engines do not have adjustable timing.
1. Start engine.
2. Attach an appropriate inductive pick-up timing light to the number one cylinder spark plug wire.
3. Put the engine into base timing mode by running a jumper wire from pin “A” to pin “B” on the engine data like
connector. The idle should automatically adjust to 900-1100 RPM.
NOTE: Due to variations in Diagnostic Scan Tools, Indmar prefers using this method of placing the ECM in base timing mode.
3. Set the timing to 10 degrees BTDC by loosening the distributor hold-down bolt and rotating the distributor until
the timing pointer indicates 10 degrees BTDC.
4. Remove the jumper from the data link connector. The idle RPM should return to normal.
5. Shut down the engine and leave it off for 15 seconds.
6. Repeat steps 1-4 to verify timing.
