hello!
So i'm still looking for the manual. I was directed to the Adults Only section but it's all gibberish to me :( I'm not sure which one i should download. I downloaded Manual #17 but i'm not sure if thats the one i need. I got some information on the engine so can someone please tell me which one it is that i should download?! I would greatly appreciate it!

The details are:

2000 Mercruiser Twin 5.7L EFI v8.

I have 2 serial#'s for it and they are:
OL656235/OL656260

Are you looking for the Operators Manual or the Service Manual? If it is the Service Manual, I think you need #24. What's Gibberish?

I'm sorry to keep bothering but do you know if theres a difference between EFI and CID?

EFI = Electronic Fuel Injection CID = Cubic Inch Displacement . . .

Sorry Mrs. Jessy, I think we now get it . . . I guess we need to consider that the poster is not always the repairer or operator or owner . . . :)
