Repair Procedures
Some of the repairs in this section must be completed with engine removed from boat.
Engine removal depends upon type of repair and boat design. Place engine on repair stand
for major repairs.
Lubricate all moving parts (during reassembly) with engine oil. Apply Quicksilver Perfect
Seal on threads of and under heads of cylinder head bolts, and on threads of all cylinder
block external bolts, screws and studs.
Engine Identification
The Mercury MerCruiser Model can be determined by looking at the last two letters of the
engine code stamped into the cylinder block. This code number is stamped on all Mercury
MerCruiser power packages and replacement partial engines, but not replacement cylinder
block assemblies.
If the engine serial number and/or model decals are missing, the engine code letters may
help in determining the engine models.
