This kit includes all necessary components for a thorough service, addressing critical aspects of engine maintenance. Regular use of this kit will help extend the lifespan of your outboard motor and maintain its reliability.

Kit Contents and Usage Instructions:

Oil Filter: High-quality oil filter designed to effectively remove contaminants from engine oil, protecting engine components from wear and ensuring smooth operation. Replace the old oil filter with the new one, ensuring the gasket is lubricated with fresh oil and tightened securely.

Fuel Filter: Durable fuel filter to maintain clean fuel delivery to the engine, preventing blockages and optimising performance. Replace the old fuel filter with the new one, ensuring correct orientation as indicated by markings or arrows.

Spark Plugs: High-performance spark plugs to facilitate efficient combustion and consistent engine performance. Remove old spark plugs, check and adjust the gap on the new spark plugs as needed, then install securely following manufacturer's torque specifications.

Gearcase Lubricant: Premium gearcase lubricant to reduce friction and wear within the gearcase, promoting longevity and smooth operation. Drain old lubricant completely, refill with new lubricant using a pump until it overflows from the vent hole, then replace and tighten drain and vent plugs.

Engine Oil: High-quality engine oil to lubricate internal engine components, minimise friction, and maintain optimal operating temperature. Drain old oil completely, refill with recommended oil grade and quantity, then replace oil cap and clean any spills.

Impeller Kit: Comprehensive impeller kit includes impeller, gaskets, and seals to ensure efficient water pump operation, preventing engine overheating. Access water pump by removing lower unit bolts, replace old components with new ones from the kit, and reassemble securely.

Thermostat: Precision thermostat to regulate engine temperature for optimal performance and fuel efficiency. Replace old thermostat with new one, ensuring proper seating and secure fastening of housing.

Anodes: Sacrificial anodes to protect engine components from galvanic corrosion, extending the life of critical metal parts. Inspect anodes thoroughly and replace corroded ones with new anodes from the kit, ensuring secure installation.

Oil Drain Plug Gasket: New gasket for the oil drain plug to prevent oil leaks and ensure a tight seal. Replace old gasket with new one during oil change to maintain integrity of the system.

Grease: Marine-grade grease to lubricate moving parts and fittings, preventing corrosion and ensuring smooth operation. Apply grease to all specified points as indicated in the service manual.

Instructions for Use:

Before starting maintenance, ensure engine is off and cool. Disconnect battery to prevent accidental start-ups. Follow detailed instructions for each component, referencing engine's service manual for specific torque values and procedures. Dispose of old oil, filters, and components responsibly in accordance with local regulations. After servicing, reassemble components, reconnect battery, start engine, and check for leaks or irregularities. Conduct a water test to confirm proper engine operation.

Using the SK Marine 012 Service Kit and following these instructions will help maintain your outboard motor in excellent condition, ensuring reliable performance and prolonged service life.
