3. Pull the dipstick back out again and observe the oil level. Oil must be

between full mark and add mark. If the oil level is low, remove the oil fill

cap and fill to (but not over) the upper oil level.

NOTE: Under certain conditions, the operating temperature of 4‑stroke

outboard engines may not get hot enough to evaporate the normal fuel and

moisture that accumulate in the crankcase. These conditions include operating

at idle for long periods, repeated short trips, slow speed or quick stop‑and‑go

operation, and operating in cooler climates. This additional fuel and moisture

that collects in the crankcase eventually ends up in the oil sump and will add

to the total volume of oil that appears on the dipstick reading. This increase in

oil volume is known as oil dilution. Outboard engines can typically handle large

amounts of oil dilution without causing durability problems. However, to ensure

extended life of the outboard engine, Mercury recommends that the oil and

filter be changed regularly following the oil change interval and using the

recommended oil quality. It is further recommended that if your outboard is

operated frequently in the conditions described above, that more frequent oil

change intervals be considered.

4. Push the dipstick back in all the way. Install the oil fill cap hand‑tight.
