Installing Oil Hoses To Engine - Mercury 150 EFI Service Manual

Installing Oil Hoses To Engine

NOTE: Oil hose with BLUE stripe contains a directional filter which is designed to trap any
debris in the oil before the oil reaches the engine oil reservoir. The filter is marked with
an arrow denoting direction of flow of oil and should be installed accordingly. Should en-
gine oil reservoir oil level drop while remote oil tank oil level is normal, oil flow through
inline filter has been reduced by debris and filter must be replaced.
Route remote oil tank pulse hoses to starboard side of engine. Route hose with BLUE
stripe to port side of engine.
