FUEL AND OIL SYSTEMS
Routine replacement of filters reduces the possi-
bility of foreign material restricting the incoming
fuel or oil supplies.
Replacement filter elements are available through
Evinrude/Johnson Genuine Parts.
Fuel Filter
Evinrude E-TEC V-model outboards are equipped
with a water-sensing, water-separating fuel filter.

Oil Filters and Oil Reservoir
Perform visual inspections to identify oiling system
leaks. Make certain the oil tank is filled and oil
supply is not contaminated.
Serviceable oil filters are located in the oil injec-
tion tank, and in the oil supply line before the oil lift
pump(s).

Routine cleaning of the air silencer is recom-
mended to remove any accumulation of debris.
