Looked up the s/n at Merc and all it shows is the operation manual 08M0058192 which isn't the service manual. Being a new one this is may require Fun Times to find it

The latest manual should be Mercruiser Service Manual 31 Merc part number 90-864260T00 which covers the newer engine models 5.0L (305), 5.7L (350), and 6.2L (377).... 90-864260T00 Superseded from the older manual # 31, Merc part # 90-864260001 and shows to cover right around the 0M300000 + serial number ranges which also shows 1A***** + serial numbers. Search 90-864260T00 online and EBay.

There's also a supplement manual that seems to cover the EC exhaust system and a few other components at affordable prices you may want to consider getting as well on top of the latest service manual 31 90-864260T00...Merc part number 879288023, http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_fro...1313.TR0.TRC0.H0.TRS0&_nkw=879288023&_sacat=0

Bear in mind though, should you be looking for a wiring diagram for the newer engines, the detailed wiring info won't be found in the service manuals any longer as that type of info is now found elsewhere for the dealers after 2007 and may require either a merc dealer or possibly try Contacting MerCruiser Customer Assistance to help find the correct "Wiring Binder" part numbers for your engine.https://www.mercurymarine.com/en/br/contact/mercruiser-customer-assistance

879288300 - SERVICE MANUAL #51 5.0/5.7/6.2 LITER GASOLINE ENGINES WITH EMISSIONS CONTROL
8M0086113 - SERVICE MANUAL #49 PCM 09 DIAGNOSTICS
879288023 - SM SUPPLEMENT: MODELS WITH EMISSIONS CONTROL
8M0065951 - SERVICE MANUAL #14 ALPHA STERNDRIVES ALPHA ONE GENERATION II

Is what came up on MercNet
But SM #51 seems to cover the supplement. So you might not need that.

Every time I look for 879288300 it only comes up with places I wouldn't buy from, CA, TV, DE. NET. Is their a local place to get them in the USA?

Ha! I saw CA and thought - California is in the US! Took a minute to realize you meant Canada. :lol:

Thanks for checking Muc, though I couldn't find it with the outdate info I have stored, I thought I had recalled seeing some manuals found in the manual index that went up higher in the number range such as the high 40's so not surprised to see 51 covering the latest small block engines...I know there's a lot more of them too.

I recall part number 8M0065951 - SERVICE MANUAL #14 ALPHA STERNDRIVES ALPHA ONE GENERATION II being the latest updated version of the older Alpha drive manual # 14 coming out right around 2013 but I didn't save a copy of it though and I'm no longer in the boat business professionally so unable to keep up to date.

Here's the manual for sale or better yet, Try PM'ing Muc as he may be able to order you one up too.
