I just bought this new Mercury engine. It is ready for its 20 hour service. I want to know, what will be done during the 20 hour service?

Bogybud<br />Welcome to the board. That info is usually in your owners manual and the service manual. If you have a new motor I would get both manuals. Your dealer should be happy to tell your also.<br /><br />I do not know but on 4 strokes I would expect to see engine oil changed with filter. The valves adjusted and the lower unit oil changed.<br /><br />They may also check timing .<br /><br />Anyway I would ask your dealer. Some dealers at this years boat show said they do 20 hr service for free. That was a Honda/Merc/Yamaha dealer.

I'm bringing my 2002 150HP carbureted Merc to the dealer tomorrow for it's free 20hr check. I was told it's basically just changing the lower unit oil and the fuel filter. I never saw this 20 hr check up mentioned in my owners manual.
