Before you buy

It doesn't include repair procedures or the full service schedule. For those, get the marine Operation and Maintenance Manual.

Your engine's dataplate shows the engine model, the engine serial number (ESN) and the CPL number. Compare those with the models above. If you're not sure, email us the dataplate details and we'll check for you.
