DIPsTICk
If the oil pressure indication is too high or too low, stop the
engine immediately and check the oil level on the dipstick.
NOTE: The oil pressure varies with engine temperature
and speed. If oil pressure does not increase when throttle
is increased, shut o the engine immediately.
Continued operation while oil level is incorrect or without
pressure may result in serious engine damage. Report any
problem to your dealer as soon as possible, and do not
operate engine until corrected.

The engine crankcase oil should be selected to deliver the
highest performance for your operating conditions and climate.
In general, engine oils with lower viscosity ratings are used when
outdoor temperature remains low. Oils with higher viscosity are
used when outdoor temperature is warmer and when higher
performance is expected from the engine.
Indmar recommends 15W-40 Pennzoil Marine in their engines.
If not available, use a 15W40 motor oil with an A.P.I. classication
rating of SL/SJ/CI4/CH4/CG4 or equivalent. Synthetic oils are
not recommended until after the engine has been run for 100
hours.
Refer to Engine Manual for more information. For filter
and capacity information, see the Engine Data table in this
manual.
In the V-drive engine configuration the remote oil filter is
mounted in a convenient spot in the engine compartment.

oPTIonal 345 oIl/aIR sePaRaToR
The 2014 model Assault 345 engines are equipped with an oil/
air separator so residual oil in the crankcase vapors is collected
rather than being sucked back into the engine and burned. The
oil/air separator must be drained periodically to make sure it
does not overow and spill oil on the engine. Drain the oil from
the separator into a clean container and pour it back into the
engine through the oil ll cap. Check for oil in the separator
weekly under normal use. You may need to check more often
if the boat is used primarily for wake surng.
