I am a recent new to me boat owner. I have a 1987 Reinell 192 Beach Craft with 260/V-8. I have been trying to find a manual for this year and model online for a couple of days. I did find this Seloc manual.
Mercruiser I/O Tune-Up & Repair Manual
* Mercruiser, 1964-1991, powered by Ford or GM 4 cyl, inline 6, V6, V8
* Mercruiser, 1992-2000 - includes Carbureted & Fuel Injection
* Mercruiser, 2001-2006 - includes Carbureted & Fuel Injection
I have never taken a prop off a boat or even seen it done. It looks almost too easy. Will this manual cover changing a prop? Also any of you guys have any idea where I can find an original owners manual or a website that might have it online? Finally one last question, I know that on the engine is all the information regarding manufacturer, what RPM range I should run at and other vital specs that I need to know. I can't seem to find that info though, where is it located in the compartment?
These seem like kinda dumb questions to me but I don't have any boat savy friends to fall back on.
