Engine Oil & Filter
The oil filter is located below the engine. The engine
manufacturer recommends that you change the oil and oil
filter after the first 10-20 hours use of your new boat.
Thereafter, to maximize engine life, change oil and filter after
every 50 hours of use (See Engine Manual.)
REFER TO ENGINE MANUAL for more information.
Fuel Filter - Water Separator (V-Drives)
Depending on the model of your engine, you will have either
a water separator filter, or a fuel filter. If your engine has a
water separator filter, it will be located on the front of the
engine. If your engine has a fuel filter, it will be located on
the stringer under the engine.
Dipstick
If the oil pressure indication is too high or too low, stop the
engine immediately and check the oil level on the dipstick.
NOTE: The oil pressure varies with engine temperature
and speed. If oil pressure does not increase when
throttle is increased, shut off the engine immediately.
Continued operation while oil level is incorrect or
without pressure may result in serious engine damage.
Report any problem to your dealer as soon as possible,
and do not operate engine until corrected.
Engine Oil
The engine crankcase oil should be selected to deliver the
highest performance for your operating conditions and
climate. In general engine oils with lower viscosity ratings
are used when outdoor temperature remains low. Oils with
higher viscosity are used when outdoor temperature is
warmer and when higher performance is expected from the
engine.
Indmar recommends 15W-40 Pennzoil Marine in their
engines. If not available, for general use in summer
conditions, 10W-40 high grade automotive oil with an A.P.I.
classification of “SE” is recommended. Synthetic oils are
not recommended until after the engine has been run for
100 hours.
Refer to Engine Manual for more information. For filter and
capacity information, see the Engine Data table in this
manual.
V-drive remote oil
filter is mounted on
the ski pylon bracket.
