Schedule / Required Maintenance

[stinkylinky]

I bought my first (used) boat this year. It has a 2002 Yam F115 on it, but does not have an hour meter, or the advanced information center.<br /><br />I check the oil before use, which is probaly 10 hours a month, but otherwise just gas and go.<br /><br />Can anyone propose a maintenance schedule for the likes of: oil and filter chage, lower unit oil change, lube points and frequency, tilt/trim maintenance.<br /><br />Any suggestion is appreciated!

Go to a Yammy dealer and get an Owner's Manual, stinky.<br /><br />That will tell you what the guys who designed and built it think.<br /><br />Good luck.

You can view (and probably download if You know the trick) the Owner's Manual for Your Yamaha F115 4-stroke here:<br /><br /> http://www.yamaha-motor.com/outboard/service/servicehome/home.aspx <br />(View Owners Manuals)<br /><br />It is PDF.<br />In Chapter 4, Manintenance, You have the maintenance chart/schedule You can follow.<br />A F115 service manual is probably wise to have also but you must buy that (not available to view/download as PDF online for free).
