Apply engine oil on filter ring, filter cover O-rings
and on oil filter screw O-ring.
NOTE: In salt water area, it is recommended to
coat mating surface of cover with
SUPER LUBE
GREASE (P/N 293 550 030)
.
Torque oil filter screw to 9 N•m (80 lbf• in ).
INSPECTION
ENGINE OIL PRESSURE
NOTE: Depending on the oil pressure switch, the
threshold value to send a signal of low oil pressure
may vary from a minimum of 180 kPa (26 PSI) to a
maximum of 220 kPa (32 PSI).
Bring engine to its normal operating temperature.
WARNING
Certain components in the engine compart-
ment may be very hot. Direct contact may re-
sult in skin burn.
NOTICE
When watercraft is out of water:
– Never run engine without supplying water to
the exhaust system.
– Never run engine longer than 2 minutes.
Drive line seal has no cooling when water-
craft is out of water.
The oil pressure is measured using the
PRESSURE
GAUGE (P/N 529 035 709)
and the
ADAPTER HOSE
(P/N 529 035 652)
. A 1/8 NPT pipe extension may
ease the installation.

Use the following table to compare the oil pres-
sure at different RPM.
OIL PRESSURE
Idle (cold)
448 kPa - 648 kPa
(65 PSI - 94 PSI)
for a very short time
Idle (at 80°C (176°F)) Min. 228 kPa (33 PSI)
4000 - 7500
400 kPa - 496 kPa
(58 PSI - 72 PSI)
Test at the Oil Pressure Switch
Location
Remove oil pressure switch and install gauge.

INSTALLATION AT PRESSURE SWITCH LOCATION
1. Remove oil pressure switch and install gauge here
To prevent the EMS to go in limp home mode (at
2500 RPM) or to generate a fault code, do the fol-
lowing:
1. Ground OPS to engine.
2. Plug OPS to harness.
3. Start engine.
4. While engine is running, unplug OPS from har-
ness.
Read oil pressure at different RPM as per table
above.
