what service should i have done.

[mike9191]

i have a 1998 volvo penta 3.0 4cyl engine and cobra sx outdrive. i recently bought the boat and changed the oil, oil filter, spark plugs, plug wires and distributor. Is there anything else that i should do to it for preventive maintenance. i don't have any service records with the boat. thank you.

Change the impeller just so you know it's new. Then change it every other year.

I'd also suggest pulling the outdrive and having a good look at bellows/u joints/gmb brg/ engine alignment. Might not be a bad idea to change to water pump as well. Not a big job on the those cobras.

Just YouTube impeller change and your motor. Lots of videos out there.
