SERVICING YOUR OUTBOARD MOTOR
Engine Oil Level Check
Check the engine oil level with the
engine stopped and the outboard
motor in the vertical position.
1. Unlock and remove the engine
cover (p.94).
2. Remove the dipstick and wipe it
clean.
3. Insert the dipstick all the way in,
and then remove it and check the
oil level shown on the dipstick.
4. If the oil level is low, remove the
oil filler cap (p.96), and add oil to
reach the upper limit mark shown
on the dipstick. Use the oil
recommended on p.99.
When you check the oil level with the
dipstick, you might notice the engine
oil appears milky or the oil level has
increased. If you notice either
condition, change the engine oil. See
the following table for an explanation
of these conditions.

Operating Method Result Effect
Running the engine below
3,000 rpm for more than 30%
of the time so the engine does
not warm up. • Water condenses in the
engine and mixes with
the oil, resulting in a
milky appearance.
• Unburned fuel mixes
with the oil, increasing
the volume of oil.
The engine oil
deteriorates,
becomes less
efficient as a
lubricant, and
causes an
engine
malfunction.
Frequent starting and stopping
without allowing the engine to
warm up.
