OIL LEVEL INSPECTION
Place the outboard motor in the vertical position (with
the engine level), and remove the engine cover.
Start the engine, let it warm up to the normal operating
temperature, and stop the engine.
Remove the dipstick [1] and wipe it clean with a shop
towel.
Insert the dipstick into the oil level pipe securely, and
then remove it and check the oil level.
Check whether the oil is dirty or has a milky color.
If the oil level is low, remove the oil filler cap [1], and
add the recommended oil to bring the oil level up to the
upper level mark on the dipstick.
If the oil has a milky color, check the seals and gaskets
and replace them with new ones if necessary:
– Mount case gasket (page 13-3)
– Cylinder head gasket (page 14-19)
– Oil case gasket (page 12-5)
Install the oil filler cap securely.
Remove the dipstick and wipe it clean again.
Insert the dipstick into the oil level pipe securely again,
and then remove it and check that the oil level is at the
upper level mark on the dipstick.
