ILMOR recommends that the maintenance requirements be performed by an autho-

rized ILMOR dealer. Service technicians there have the proper equipment, training and

resources to best meet your service needs.

In order to thoroughly drain all the old oil, the boat engine needs to reach

at least 140 F. (60 C.), which is approximately fifteen (15) minutes idle. DO NOT run the

engine without it being in water. If you cannot place the boat in a body of water or do not have

access to a professional off-shore hook-up (as some dealerships do) to protect the engine and

drive-train components, have an authorized ILMOR dealer perform this service. If you are go-

ing to warm up the engine while on a body of water, remove it from the water and immediately

perform the service, ensuring the proper draining and disposal/recycling of the old oil.
