Section 6 - Storage Cold Weather or Extended Storage IMPORTANT: Mercury MerCruiser strongly recommends that this service should be performed by an authorized Mercury MerCruiser dealer. Damage caused by freezing temperatures IS NOT covered by the Mercury MerCruiser Limited Warranty. NOTICE Water trapped in the seawater section of the cooling system can cause corrosion or freeze damage. Drain the seawater section of the cooling system immediately after operation or before any length of storage in freezing temperatures. If the boat is in the water, keep the seacock closed until restarting the engine to prevent water from flowing back into the cooling system. If the boat is not fitted with a seacock, leave the water inlet hose disconnected and plugged. NOTE: As a precautionary measure, attach a tag to the key switch or steering wheel of the boat reminding the operator to open the seacock or unplug and reconnect the water inlet hose before starting the engine. IMPORTANT: Mercury MerCruiser requires that propylene glycol antifreeze, mixed to the manufacturers instructions, be used in the seawater section of the cooling system for freezing temperatures or extended storage. Make sure that the propylene glycol antifreeze contains a rust inhibitor and is recommended for use in marine engines. Be certain to follow the propylene glycol manufacturer's recommendations. Preparing Power Package for Storage 1. Fill the fuel tanks with fresh gasoline (that does not contain alcohol) and a sufficient amount of Quicksilver Gasoline Stabilizer for Marine Engines to treat the gasoline. Follow instructions on the container. 2. Check the antifreeze concentration. Refer to the Specifications section. 3. If the boat is to be placed in storage with fuel containing alcohol in fuel tanks (if fuel without alcohol is not available): Fuel tanks should be drained as low as possible and Mercury/Quicksilver Gasoline Stabilizer for Marine Engines added to any fuel remaining in the tank. Refer to Fuel Requirements for additional information. 4. Flush the cooling system. Refer to the Maintenance section. 5. Supply cooling water to engine. Refer to the Maintenance section 6. Operate the engine sufficiently to bring it up to normal operating temperature and allow fuel with Mercury/Quicksilver Gasoline Stabilizer to circulate through the fuel system. Shut off the engine. 7. Change the oil and oil filter. 8. Prepare the engine and fuel system for storage. See Engine and Fuel System Preparation. 9. Drain the engine seawater cooling system. See Draining the Seawater System. NOTICE Water trapped in the seawater section of the cooling system can cause corrosion or freeze damage. Drain the seawater section of the cooling system immediately after operation or before any length of storage in freezing temperatures. If the boat is in the water, keep the seacock closed until restarting the engine to prevent water from flowing back into the cooling system. If the boat is not fitted with a seacock, leave the water inlet hose disconnected and plugged. Page 92 90-<strong>899883192</strong> NOVEMBER 2008
Section 6 - Storage 10. For additional assurance against freezing and rust, after draining, fill the seawater cooling system with propylene glycol mixed to the manufacturer's recommendation to protect engine to the lowest temperature to which it will be exposed during freezing temperatures or extended storage. 11. Store the battery according to the manufacturer's instructions. ENGINE AND FUEL SYSTEM PREPARATION ! WARNING Fuel is flammable and explosive. Ensure the key switch is off and the lanyard is positioned so that the engine cannot start. Do not smoke or allow sources of spark or open flame in the area while servicing. Keep the work area well ventilated and avoid prolonged exposure to vapors. Always check for leaks before attempting to start the engine and wipe up any spilled fuel immediately. ! WARNING Fuel vapors trapped in the engine compartment may be an irritant, cause difficulty breathing, or may ignite resulting in a fire or explosion. Always ventilate the engine compartment before servicing the power package. NOTICE Running out of fuel can damage catalyst components. Do not allow the fuel tanks to become empty during operation. 1. In a 23 liter (6 US gal.) remote fuel tank mix: a. 19 liter (5 US gal.) regular unleaded 87 octane (90 RON) gasoline b. 1.89 liter (2 US qt.) Premium Plus 2‐Cycle TC‐W3 Outboard Oil c. 150 ml (5 oz) Fuel System Treatment and Stabilizer or 30 ml (1 oz) Fuel System Treatment and Stabilizer Concentrate Tube Ref No. Description Where Used Part No. 115 Premium Plus 2-cycle TC-W3 Outboard Oil Fuel system 92-858026K01 124 Fuel System Treatment & Stabilizer Fuel system 858071K01 2. Allow the engine to cool. IMPORTANT: Immediately wipe up any fuel spills or sprays. 3. Close the fuel shut off valve, if equipped. Disconnect and plug the fuel inlet fitting if not equipped with a fuel shut off valve. 4. Connect the remote fuel tank (with the fogging mixture) to the fuel inlet fitting. IMPORTANT: Supply cooling water to the engine. 5. Start and operate the engine at 1300 RPM for five minutes. 6. After the specified operating time is complete, slowly return the throttle to idle and shut the engine off. IMPORTANT: Ensure that some fogging mixture remains in the engine. Do not allow the engine's fuel system to become completely dry. 7. Replace the water separating fuel filter element. Refer to Section 5. 90-<strong>899883192</strong> NOVEMBER 2008 Page 93
