Engine Alignment
The engine uses a rubber spline hub to which the out drive shaft is
attached. This alignment specifi cation between the engine and out
drive needs to be checked periodically. It should be checked after
every 50 hours of operation, or if the vessel has run aground or hit a
submerged object. Alignment should be checked by a Regal dealer or
marine professional, since special tools and procedures are required.
Engine Removal
In the event the engine or out drive (sometimes referred to as stern
drive) requires major service where it needs to be removed, consult
your Regal dealer.
Engine Checklist Before Each Outing
Every engine option may require different checks before each use, but
a general engine checklist is included here as a guide.
At Engine/ Stern Drive:
Check the cooling system. Ensure no leaks, and that
coolant level is suffi cient.
Check the fuel pump for operation, and check fuel lines
for any leaks.
Check engine oil.
Check power steering fl uid level.
Check power trim fl uid.
