After the first 25 hours of operation, it is recommended
that the engine be given an inspection. Your boat dealer
or a PCM Premier servicing dealer should be contacted
to perform the necessary checks and adjustments to
ensure the proper engine performance. The following
maintenance should be performed:
• Change the engine oil and filter. This engine
starts out with break-in oil and should be run
in the engine for at least the first 5 hours of
operation. Any time after 5 hours, but NO
MORE than 25 hours, the engine oil and
filter must be changed. See ENGINE OIL
RECOMMENDATIONS later in this publication.
• Replace the primary fuel pre-filter
• Check the engine alignment.
• Inspect the accessory drive belt(s) and check the
tension.
• Check all the fluid levels.
• Check the throttle and the shift cable adjustments
and check for freedom of movement.
• Cooling System - Inspect all the hoses for leaks,
damage and deterioration. Check all the hose
clamps for adequate tightness.
• Models with Thermostatically-Controlled Exhaust
Cooling System - Inspect exhaust cooling
system thermostat and housing inlet. Clean as
necessary.
• Exhaust System - Inspect the entire exhaust
system for leaks, damage and deterioration.
Check all the hose clamps for adequate
tightness.
• Battery - Check the electrolyte level and specific
gravity. Inspect the case for damage. Check the
battery cables and connections.
• Engine Assembly - Check for loose, missing
or damaged parts. Pay close attention to
engine mounts, starter and alternator mounting
fasteners.
NOTICE: PCM Engines assumes no responsibility for
the costs related to the 25-hour inspection. This is the
