Engine Oil
NOTICE
Discharge of oil, coolant, or other engine/drive fluids into the environment is restricted by law. Use caution not to spill oil,
coolant, or other fluids into the environment when using or servicing your boat. Be aware of the local restrictions governing
the disposal or recycling of waste, and contain and dispose of fluids as required.
Checking
IMPORTANT: Check the engine oil at the intervals specified by the Maintenance Schedule. It is normal for an engine to use a
small amount of oil during operation. The amount of oil consumed depends upon engine speed. Oil consumption is the highest
at wide‑open throttle and decreases substantially as engine speed is reduced.
NOTICE
With the engine running, the crankshaft journals or rod journals may strike and break the dipstick, resulting in damage to
internal engine components. Stop the engine completely before removing or inserting the dipstick.
1. If the engine has been run, stop the engine and allow five minutes for the oil to drain into the pan.
2. Remove the dipstick, wipe clean, and install.
NOTE: A dipstick is provided on both sides of the engine, either one may be used as installation access allows.
a - Port side engine oil dipstick
b - Engine oil fill cap
Starboard side engine oil dipstick
