GENERAL SERVICE NOTES
Your Indmar dealer is your best source for engine repair
and maintenance. Indmar certified technicians attend
ongoing service training programs and have the proper
diagnostic tools plus the latest specifications for your
engine.
Electrical, ignition and fuel system compo-
nents on Indmar engines comply with U.S.
Coast Guard rules and regulations to mini-
mize risks of fire or explosion. Use of
replacement electrical, ignition or fuel sys-
tem components, which do not comply to
these rules and regulations, could result in a
fire or explosion hazard and should not be
used.
Your safety depends on your use of marine parts. When
servicing the electrical, ignition and fuel systems, it is
extremely important that all components are properly
installed and tightened. If not, any electrical or ignition
component could permit sparks to ignite fuel vapors from
fuel system leaks, if they existed.
Since marine engines may be expected to operate at
higher RPM ranges than typical automotive use for most
of their life, and to operate in fresh and salt water envi-
ronments, many special parts and fasteners are used
which are quite different from standard automotive parts.
Many parts are made from special corrosion resistant
materials while other moving parts are heavy-duty for
extended, high RPM duty. If you perform minor service
procedures, make sure to use genuine Indmar parts for
marine use.
