NOTICE
Consider the installation location of the
remote oil tank carefully. The oil tank is
vented to the atmosphere. To avoid serious
powerhead damage, be sure the oil tank is
installed in a location that does not allow con-
stant exposure to sunlight, rain, bilge water or
spray.
If installing the optional remote oil tank, select a
mounting location that provides:
•
A solid place to mount the tank
•
A dry location that prevents exposure to rain or
spraying water
•
Access for adding oil
•
Interference-free hose and wire routing to out-
board.
If necessary, the oil tank can be mounted further
from the outboard than the supplied hoses and
harness allow.
NOTICE
Do not exceed a maximum of 25 ft. of oil hose
to the outboard.

Oil Hose Routing

Route oil hose through the rigging hose. Use the
most direct path to route the oil hose from the oil
tank to the outboard.

The remote oil fill kit (P/N 176461) provides a
deck-mounted fill tube, cap, a tank-mounted tube,
and nut that replace the original oil tank cap
assembly.
Installation Recommendations

drain away from the fill and is best suited for
the installation.

above the oil tank fill cap.

length of 1½ in. I.D. fill hose to route as directly
and as vertically as possible.

Avoid inappropriate hose routings that could
distort the fill tube or tank tube.

Refer to installation instructions provided with
remote oil fill kit.
