Figure 7
1. Remove the filler cap / dipstick
(Figure 7, (4)) from the power steering
oil service tank (Figure 7, (1)) and wipe
with a clean cloth.
2. Fully reinsert dipstick.
3. Remove dipstick. The oil level should
be between upper (Figure 7, (3)) and
lower (Figure 7, (2)) lines on the
dipstick.
4. Fill with oil to the upper limit on the
dipstick. See Mercruiser
Drive Oil Specifications on page 32.
NOTICE: NEVER overfill the power
steering system with oil.
5. Fully reinsert dipstick and tighten.
ENGINE COOLANT
Engine Coolant Specifications
• Texaco Long Life Coolant (LLC), both
standard and premixed, product code
7997 and 7998.
• Havoline Extended Life
Antifreeze / Coolant, product code 7994.
Note: In the U.S., LLC is required for the
warranty to be valid.
NOTICE: Following the manufacturer’s
recommendations, use a proper LLC
which will not have any adverse effects
on the materials (cast iron, aluminum,
copper, etc.) of the engine’s cooling
system. See Engine Coolant
Specifications on page 33.
ALWAYS use the mixing ratios specified by
the antifreeze manufacturer for the
temperature range.
NOTICE: ALWAYS add LLC to soft water
– especially when operating in cold
weather. NEVER use hard water. Water
should be clean and free from sludge or
particles. Without LLC, cooling
performance will decrease due to scale
and rust in the coolant system. Water
alone may freeze and form ice; it
expands approximately 9% in volume.
Use the proper amount of coolant
concentrate for the ambient
temperature as specified by the LLC
manufacturer. LLC concentration
should be a minimum of 30% to a
maximum of 60%. Too much LLC will
decrease the cooling efficiency.
Excessive use of antifreeze also lowers
the cooling efficiency of the engine.
NEVER mix different types or brands of
LLC, as a harmful sludge may form.
Mixing different brands of antifreeze
may cause chemical reactions, and may
make the antifreeze useless or cause
engine problems.
