FUEL PUMP FILTER
SPARK PLUGS
The fuel filter is located in the motor’s fuel pump. An
authorized Evinrude/Johnson DEALER should ser-
vice the fuel filter.
WARNING
The   ignition   system  presents   a   serious
shock hazard. The primary circuit operates
in excess of 250 volts; the secondary circuit
operates in excess of 25,000 volts. Use cau-
tion  to  avoid  injury  from  shock  or  injury
resulting  from  your  reaction  to  shock.  Do
not  handle  primary  or  secondary  ignition
components while the engine is cranking or
running.
WARNING
Prevent  excessive  fuel  spillage  by  discon-
necting fuel hose from motor before disas-
sembly.
The filter is located under the inlet cover on the fuel
pump. To service, proceed as follows:
If portable tank is used, disconnect the fuel hose
from the motor before servicing the filter.
Place a rag in the area under the fuel pump to ab-
sorb the drainage from the pump.
Inspect  spark  plugs  periodically.  Replace  if  elec-
trodes are badly worn, insulators are cracked, or if
they are badly fouled.
To remove spark plugs, twist and remove all spark
plug leads. Unscrew spark plug from cylinder head.
Loosen screw and remove the cover.
To install spark plugs, wipe spark plug seats clean
with a clean rag. Install spark plugs finger tight, then
tighten to specified torque. Refer to Engine Speci-
fications.
IMPORTANT: Avoid engine damage by installing
spark plugs into COOL cylinder head and not over-
tightening.
Before installing the spark  plug lead, apply  a light
coat of Triple-Guard grease to the ribbed portion of
the spark plug. This will help prevent corrosion be-
tween the spring terminal and the spark plug.
