CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD
DANGER
Carbon Monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless
and tasteless gas. You cannot see it, smell it or
taste it. Prolonged exposure to carbon monoxide
can lead to unconsciousness, brain damage or
death!
Carbon monoxide is produced when anything that
contains carbon, such as gasoline, natural gas, oil,
propane, coal or wood is burned. Carbon monoxide is
commonly found in the exhaust of internal combustion
engines (boat power plants, generators, etc.). In
addition, open fl ame devices like cooking ranges,
heaters and charcoal grills also produce carbon
monoxide.
Carbon monoxide accumulation, in and around boats
is affected by vessel geometry; overall vessel design;
closeness to other structures; wind direction; boat speed;
and many other variables. In no way can this section
cover all of the possible variables. Do not rely on this
section as the exclusive listing of measures to prevent
the accumulation of carbon monoxide.

Consult your boat operators manual for detailed
information on the inspection and/or maintenance of
the exhaust system for your particular application. If
an inspection reveals possible leaks, DO NOT operate
your engine(s) until it can be serviced by a qualifi ed
technician.
Proper and adequate air circulation, around and
throughout the boat, is absolutely necessary to aid in
the prevention of carbon monoxide build-up. If you
have any questions or concerns regarding the operation
of your boat and carbon monoxide hazards, DO NOT
operate your engines until you have contacted your boat
manufacturer.

ELECTRONIC FUEL INJECTION INFORMATION - 4
ELECTRONIC FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM
The PCM engines covered in this manual are equipped
with an Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) system, which
allows precise control of fuel and spark delivery. The
fuel system components of the EFI system are:
• The electric fuel pump
• The throttle body assembly
• The fuel injectors
The fuel injection system is controlled by an Electronic
Control Module (ECM). The ECM is the decision
center of the system. The ECM constantly monitors
information from various sensors on the engine, and
electronically processes the information, in order to
control ignition timing and fuel delivery for optimum
performance and fuel economy. The ECM incorporates
an engine overspeed protection, calibrated to a specifi c
RPM, to prevent engine damage from over-revving.
The sensors that the ECM monitors are:
• Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor
• Throttle Position (TP) Sensor
• Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) Sensor
• Knock Sensor (KS) System
• Crankshaft Positioning (CKP) Sensor
• Camshaft Positioning (CMP) Sensor
• Intake Air Temperature (IAT) Sensor
POWER REDUCTION MODE
The ECM monitors engine oil pressure and engine
coolant temperature whenever the engine is running.
If either one of these inputs indicate an abnormal
reading, the system will go into “Power Reduction” mode,
followed by the illumination of an indicator lamp and/or
sounding of the warning buzzer (if equipped). This is a
feature that will help protect the engine during an overtemp or low oil pressure condition.
When in “Power Reduction” mode, the ECM will allow
normal engine performance up to 2000 RPM. Above
2000 RPM, the ECM allows fuel delivery through only
half of the fuel injectors. Once the RPM is brought down
below 1200 RPM, normal engine operation is restored
until the RPM exceeds 2000 RPM. The feature allows
maneuverability of the boat while removing the possibility
of high engine speed operation until the problem is
corrected.
NOTICE: If it is not possible to safely shut off the
engine, return the engine to idle speed. Once returned
to idle, the ECM will allow the engine to operate normally
below 2000 RPM.

This engine is equipped with a Digital Throttle Control
(DTC) system. The system uses a throttle cable
connected between the throttle handle and a Throttle
Control Positioning (TCP) sensor located on the engine.
The Throttle Control Positioning sensor provides throttle
position information to the engine management system
which, in turn, electronically controls engine throttle
movement.
This boat may also be equipped with an electronic
speed control system for skiing, wake boarding, or cruise
control. When the boat is operated in a speed control
mode, the operator may not have full control of the
throttle until the speed control system is deactivated.
Example: If the speed control system is engaged at 32
mph, the throttle handle may be “dead” when trying to
accelerate above 32 mph. The speed control system
would need to be disengaged, then the operator will gain
full control of the boat speed.
Refer to your Boat Manufacturers Owners/
Operational manual for specifi c operation and
troubleshooting information for your speed control
system.
ENGINE ALARM SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
The PCM engine electronic system is programmed to
control the engine alarm system. This system utilizes
an audible alarm and/or optional indicator lamps to warn
the operator of possible engine problems, and that the
engine may have entered the “Power Reduction” mode
as covered earlier in this manual.
The alarm has a “self” checking feature programmed into
the system. This feature will sound the alarm for two
short pulses upon initial start-up of the engine.
If the alarm sounds during operation, immediately throttle
back to idle speed. Observe the indicator lamps to
locate the problem circuit. The engine should be shut off
to prevent damage to the engine.
NOTICE: Some boat builders may install their own
alarm system. It is recommended that the boat owner
check with his or her boat dealer for an explanation of
the particular alarm system upon initial delivery.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS - 5
STARTING ENGINE (FUEL INJECTED ENGINES)
WARNING
Before starting engine, ventilate the engine
compartment by operating the bilge blower for
a minimum of fi ve minutes to remove any gas
fumes from the engine compartment. If the boat
is not equipped with a blower, open the engine
compartment hatches to ventilate and leave open
while starting engine.
IMPORTANT: Do not start the engine without water
being supplied to the sea water pick-up pump
or sea-water pump impeller will be damaged, and
subsequent overheating damage to the engine may
result.
IMPORTANT: The following items should be
checked before starting the engine, and each time
the boat is operated:
• Fuel system for any signs of leakage
• Operation of remote controls and steering
• Engine and transmission oil levels
• Fuel tank levels
Check for
signs of
external leaks
Figure 5-2A Water Leaks
After performing the initial safety checks, proceed as
follows to start the engine:
1. Turn the battery switch ON (if equipped).
2. Open the fuel valve.
3. Open the seacock.
4. Place the remote control in Neutral position. The
transmission is equipped with a neutral safety
switch, which will not allow the starter motor to
operate unless the transmission is in neutral.
Check for
signs of
external leaks
• Exhaust system for leaks and tightness of the
clamps
• Battery connections and water level in battery
cells
• Accessory drive belt(s)
• Cooling system for leaks. If equipped with freshwater cooling, check coolant level in recovery
bottle. Check for signs of water leaks at the
exhaust manifolds, risers and elbows (Figure
5-2A). If the water is leaking externally, it is
possible that the water is also leaking internally.
This could result in internal engine damage. It
is very important to service these maintenance
items as soon as a problem is indicated.
5. Do not pump or open the throttle when
starting the engine (Figure 5-1). The ECM
will automatically regulate the fuel and control
desired idle speed.
6. Turn the ignition key to the start position. When
the engine starts, release the key.
NOTICE: Engine idle speed is controlled by the ECM
and is based on the operating temperature of the engine.
Upon initial start-up, engine RPM will be slightly higher
and will automatically decrease as the engine operating
temperature increases.
7. In the event the engine becomes fl ooded,
move the throttle lever to a 100% open position
(Figure 5-1). At this throttle position, the ECM will
command the injectors to deliver no fuel during
engine cranking. When the engine starts, return
the throttle lever back to the idle position.
IMPORTANT: If the engine fails to start within 20-30
seconds, turn the ignition key to the OFF position
and allow 2 minutes for the starter motor to cool off
before attempting to restart the engine.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS - 5
STOPPING ENGINE
When returning to the dock, or whenever stopping the
engine, bring the throttle back to the idle position. After
the engine reaches idle speed, turn the ignition key to
the OFF position.
Before stopping the engine after extended high speed
operation, allow the engine to idle at 1200 RPM for 3 to 5
minutes to allow the engine to cool down before shutting
off the ignition.
After stopping the engine, complete the following:
1. Turn the battery switch OFF, if equipped.
2. Close the fuel valve.
3. Close the seacock.
4. Flush the cooling system if in a salt water area.
FREEZING TEMPERATURE OPERATION
If the possibility of freezing exists, the cooling system
must be protected after the engine is shut off to prevent
freeze damage to the engine. Refer to OUT-OFSEASON STORAGE for draining instructions.
OPERATION IN HIGH DEBRIS AREAS
If the boat is to be operated in high debris areas, a sea
strainer should be installed in the water inlet hose to
prevent debris from entering the cooling system. The
strainer used must be of suffi cient size to allow an
adequate supply of water for cooling the engine. A
minimum of 30 gallons per minute (114 liters per minute)
fl ow rate is required.

L510010-06
CONDITIONS AFFECTING OPERATION - 6
TRIM AND WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION
Trimming of the boat and positioning of the weight (gear
and passengers) inside the boat has the following effects
on handling:
• Trimming the bow up or shifting weight to the
stern (rear).
− Normally used for cruising (running) with a
choppy wave condition (following sea) for
running at full speed.
− Will generally increase speed and engine
RPM.
− Will cause the bow to bounce in rough water.
− In extreme, may cause the boat to porpoise.
− When coming off plane, it increases the
chances of following wave splashing into the
stern of the boat.
• Trimming the bow down or shifting the weight to
the bow (front).
BOAT BOTTOM
To ensure maximum engine performance, fuel economy
and boat speed, the bottom of your boat must be kept
clean and free of marine growth and barnacles. Marine
vegetation may accumulate when the boat is docked
and should be removed before operation. If the boat
is docked for long periods of time, the water inlets may
become clogged with growth and will cause the engine
to overheat.
In most areas, it is advisable to coat the boat bottom with
antifouling paint to prevent the build-up of marine growth.
Contact your dealer for advice on these requirements in
your area.
− Normally used for cruising (running) against
a choppy wave condition, acceleration onto
plane and operating at slow planing speeds.
− Will improve rough water ride and handling.
− In extreme, may cause the boat to bow steer
(veer back and forth with little control).
L510010-06

CONDITIONS AFFECTING OPERATION - 6
PROPELLER SELECTION
Best all-around performance and maximum engine life is
achieved when the engine is propped to run near the top
of (but within) the recommended full throttle RPM range
with a normal load. See ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS for
rated full throttle RPM for your model engine.
Generally, gross weight (total weight of the entire
boat, including full fuel and water, optional equipment,
passengers and other miscellaneous gear) is one of
the major factors and should be one of the primary
considerations when selecting a propeller. Other factors
to take into consideration are as follows:
• Warmer weather and higher humidity will cause
an RPM loss.
• Operating the boat in a higher elevation will
cause an RPM loss.
• Operating the boat with an increased load
will cause an RPM loss (additional equipment,
passengers, etc.).
If full throttle RPM is above or below the recommended
range as stated in ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS, the
propeller must be changed to prevent loss of
performance. A one-inch change in either the pitch
or diameter of a given propeller will generally change
engine RPM by 150 to 250 RPM.
ENGINE RPM CHART
Minimum
Model Full Load Preferred Maximum
MP 5.0L 4600 4800 5000
MP 5.7L 4800 5000 5200
MP 6.0L 4800 5200 5300
CAUTION
Prolonged WOT operation will shorten the life of
your engine and could cause premature engine
failure. See NORMAL CRUISING SPEEDS in
SPECIFICATIONS. Problems caused by WOT
operation are considered abuse and are not covered
under the PCM Warranty.
NOTICE: These engines incorporate a RPM “REV
LIMIT” in order to prevent the engine from over-revving.
22
L510010-06
ENGINE BREAK-IN PERIOD - 7
WARNING
Use this procedure ONLY when conditions are such
that it can be done in complete safety.
The break-in period of your engine is the fi rst 25 hours
of operation. Proper engine break-in is essential to
achieve maximum performance, longevity and minimum
oil consumption. During the break-in period, the
following operation guidelines must be adhered to:
• After the engine is thoroughly warmed up, and
the boat is underway, open the throttle to wide
open throttle until maximum RPM is reached. DO
NOT EXCEED MAXIMUM RPM. (RPM should
cease climbing after 10 to 20 seconds).
CAUTION
DO NOT operate at full throttle in neutral at any time,
or at sustained full throttle during the fi rst 5 hours
of operation. Thereafter, use sustained wide open
throttle in the event of an emergency.
CAUTION
DO NOT attempt to break in any engine by prolong
idling, or running at the dock.
The engine oil level should be checked often and oil
added when necessary. It must be understood that
every internal combustion engine will use a certain
amount of oil during operation to act as a lubricating
and cooling agent, especially during the break-in period.
Oil consumption should decrease and become stabilized
after approximately 100 hours of operation.
At the end of your 25-hour break-in period, contact your
dealer and have the recommended 25-hour inspection
done.
NOTICE: PCM Engines assumes no responsibility for
the costs related to the 25-hour inspection. This is the
owner’s responsibility.
• Reduce the throttle to 2800 - 3000 RPM, and
cruise at or below this speed for 1/2 hour.
Reduce the speed to idle. Go to wide open
throttle until maximum RPM is reached and
operate for approximately 1 minute. Reduce
throttle to 2800-3000 RPM and operate for a few
minutes. (Bringing the engine speed from idle to
wide open throttle will load the engine and assist
in seating the piston rings). This cycle should be
repeated from time to time during the fi rst 5 hours
of operation, but wide open throttle should not be
sustained for more than 1 minute.
• During the remaining 20 hours of break in period,
the engines can be run at cruise speeds that are
approximately 75-80% of the wide open throttle
RPM, occasionally varying the cruise speed by
100 RPM.
• During the early part of the break in period, the
correct propeller selection can be confi rmed.
(With a normal load aboard, the engine’s RPM
should reach, but not exceed, the maximum RPM
as listed in the specifi cations section).
• During the break in, all gauges should be
watched carefully, and the speed should be
reduced if abnormal readings become evident.
L510010-06
23
25-HOUR ENGINE INSPECTION - 8
After the fi rst 25 hours of operation, it is recommended
that the engine be given an inspection. Your boat
dealer or a PCM servicing dealer should be contacted
to perform the necessary checks and adjustments to
ensure the proper engine performance. The following
maintenance should be performed:
• Change the engine oil and fi lter.
• Replace the primary fuel fi lter
• Check the engine alignment.
• Inspect the accessory drive belt(s) and check the
tension.
• Check all the fl uid levels.
• Check the throttle and the shift cable adjustments
and check for freedom of movement.
• Cooling System - Inspect all the hoses for leaks,
damage and deterioration. Check all the hose
clamps for adequate tightness.
• Exhaust System - Inspect the entire exhaust
system for leaks, damage and deterioration.
Check all the hose clamps for adequate
tightness.
• Battery - Check the electrolyte level and specifi c
gravity. Inspect the case for damage. Check the
battery cables and connections.
• Engine Assembly - Check for loose, missing
or damaged parts. Pay close attention to
engine mounts, starter and alternator mounting
fasteners.
NOTICE: PCM Engines assumes no responsibility for
the costs related to the 25-hour inspection. This is the
owner’s responsibility.

GASOLINE CONTAINING ALCOHOL
Gasoline containing alcohol, either ethanol (ethyl
alcohol) or methanol (methyl alcohol) is not
recommended for use in your engine. Gasoline
containing alcohol will attract and hold moisture and may
cause the following:
• Hard starting and operating diffi culties (vapor
lock, low speed stalling)
• Corrosion of metal parts
• Excessive wear and damage to internal engine
parts
• Fuel permeation through fl exible fuel lines
• Deterioration of some nonmetallic materials
The adverse effects of alcohol are more severe with
methanol and are worse with increasing alcohol content.
If gasoline containing alcohol is used, or if the presence
of alcohol is uncertain, more frequent inspections of the
complete fuel system are required. Any sign of fuel
leakage or deterioration must be repaired immediately
before further engine operation.
Figure 9-1 Fuel Requirements
NOTICE: Most PCM Fuel Injected engines are
calibrated to operate on 87 octane fuel and maximum
performance is obtained when using this fuel. Some
applications may require a higher octane fuel. These
particular applications will be noted.
If a slight pinging is heard during acceleration and the
proper octane fuel is being used, it is considered normal.
If a constant, heavy knock occurs, the engine should be
evaluated by a PCM Engine service technician.
CAUTION
Fire and Explosion Hazard - Gasoline is extremely
fl ammable and highly explosive, and , if ignited,
can cause serious bodily injury or death. Careful
inspection of the entire fuel system including, but
not limited to, fuel tanks, fuel lines, fuel fi lters and
all fi ttings is mandatory, especially after periods of
storage. Replace any component that shows signs of
leakage, corrosion, deterioration, swelling, hardening
or softening.
NOTICE: Some gasolines contain an octane-enhancing
additive called methylcyclopentadlenyl manganese
tricarbonyl (MMT), and they should not be used.
These fuels may reduce spark plug life, and engine
performance may be effected.

OIL REQUIREMENTS - 10
ENGINE OIL RECOMMENDATIONS
Use of Supplemental Additives
Engine oils meeting PCM Engines’ recommendations
already contain a balanced additive treatment. The
use of supplemental additives which are added to the
engine oil by the customer are unnecessary and may
be harmful. PCM Engines does not review, approve or
recommend such products.
Synthetic Oils
Synthetic engine oils are not recommended for use
in PCM Engines. Synthetics may offer advantages
in cold temperature pumpability and high temperature
oxidation-resistance. However, synthetic oils have not
proven to provide operational or economic benefi ts
over conventional petroleum-based oils in PCM Engines.
Their use does not permit the extension of oil change
intervals.
Engine Oil Requirements
The following chart shows the recommended oil viscosity
for various ambient temperature ranges:
Prevailing Ambient Recommended A.P.I.
Temperature Classifi cation & Viscosity
Above 50˚F SAE 15W-40 “SM”
Below 50˚F SAE 5W-30 “SM”
IMPORTANT: The use of oils which contain “solid”
additives, non-detergent oils or low quality oils
specifi cally are not recommended.
WARRANTY NOTICE: PCM Engines reserves the right
to refuse warranty on part(s) and/or engine(s) damaged
by using improper fuels and engine oils.
Oil Change Intervals (Common)
Crankcase oil and oil fi lter change - Recommended
intervals:

ENGINE MAINTENANCE
Refer to the MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE for a complete
listing of required maintenance and the frequency at
which it should be performed. Some procedures may
be performed by the owner/operator while others should
be performed by an authorized PCM Engines Dealer.
Before performing any maintenance or repair procedure
not covered in this manual, it is strongly recommended
that a PCM Engines repair manual be purchased and
read thoroughly.
CHECKING FLUID LEVELS
Engine Crankcase Oil
ENGINE MAINTENANCE - 11
CAUTION
Do not overfi ll engine crankcase with oil, as excess
oil will be splashed by reciprocating engine parts onto
the cylinder walls in greater quantity than the rings
can control. The oil, subsequently, will be drawn into
the combustion chamber and burned. Continuous
operation under these conditions can cause carbon
to form on combustion chamber surfaces, which will
adversely affect engine performance and may lead
to premature engine failure. Splashing or agitation
of oil also may cause it to become aerated, which
will affect the oil pressure, and may result in internal
engine damage from lack of lubrication.
1. Stop the engine if running. Allow approximately 5
minutes for the oil to drain back into the oil pan.
2. Remove the dipstick, wipe it clean, and reinstall it
fully into the dipstick tube.
3. Remove the dipstick and observe the oil level.
The oil level must be between the “FULL” and
“ADD” marks. If the oil level is below the “ADD”
mark, add specifi ed oil to bring the level up to,
but not over, the “FULL” mark on the dipstick.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM CIRCUIT BREAKER
Main Circuit Breaker
PCM engines are equipped with a circuit breaker which
provides electrical overload protection for both engine
and instrumentation wiring and components. Should an
electrical overload occur, the circuit breaker will open
and prevent electrical current fl ow.
When this circuit breaker opens, the cause for the high
current draw must be found and corrected. The circuit
breaker can be reset by pushing the “Reset” button IN
after waiting a few minutes. If the cause of the overload
cannot be found, disconnect all accessories which are
connected to the main wire harness.
If resetting is still not possible, check the battery and
alternator connections and all other harness connectors
on the main harness. Check for loose or disconnected
lead wires and shorted circuits.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FUSES
PCM engines utilizes fuses to control the fuel pump,
ECM and fuel injectors. The fuse block is mounted to
a bracket near the exhaust elbow under a weather-tight
cover.

IGNITION FUSE
If the engine will not crank when the ignition key is turned
to the START position, fi rst check that the shift lever is in
neutral position. If the main circuit breaker is not tripped,
check for blown ignition fuse. The ignition fuse may be
located on the instrument panel, the fuse holder block
or as part of the instrument wiring harness. Check the
wiring diagrams supplied from the boat manufacturer for
the exact location.
WARNING
Always disconnect the battery cables from the
battery, when servicing the electrical system, to
prevent personal injury and to prevent damage to the
electrical system components.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WIRING AND
CONNECTORS
The electrical system wiring and connectors should be
checked periodically for loose or dirty connections and
damaged wiring. If electrical components or wiring show
signs of corrosion, deterioration or damage, consult a
PCM Engine dealer to make necessary repairs.

BATTERY
WARNING
Battery electrolyte is a corrosive acid and should
be handled with care. If electrolyte is spilled or
splashed on any part of the body, IMMEDIATELY
fl ush the exposed area with liberal amounts of water
and obtain medical aid as soon as possible. Safety
glasses and rubber gloves are recommended when
handling batteries or fi lling with electrolyte.
WARNING
Hydrogen gases that escape from the battery when
charging are highly explosive. Do not use jumper
cables and a booster battery to start the engine. Do
not recharge a weak battery in the boat. Remove
the battery from the boat and recharge in a well
ventilated area away from fuel vapors, sparks and
open fl ames.
Follow maintenance instructions and warnings as
supplied by the battery manufacturer. If this information
is not available, follow these guidelines for the proper
battery care.
• Do not operate the engine with an open in the
battery circuit, as this may cause damage to the
alternator. Make sure that all connections are
clean and secure.
• When removing the battery cables, always
remove the negative (-) cable fi rst, and then
remove the positive (+) cable. When installing
battery cables, install the positive (+) cable fi rst,
then install the negative (-) cable.
• Periodically check the battery for signs of
corrosion, frayed battery leads or cracked case.
Repair or replace as necessary.
• Periodically check the electrolyte level. Add
distilled water to bring up to the proper levels.
IMPORTANT: Your engine is designed to work with
the standard electronics installed in your boat. If you
add other electrical components or accessories, you
could change the way the fuel injection controls your
engine or the overall electrical system functions. Before
adding electrical equipment, consult your dealer. If you
don’t, your engine may not perform properly.

CHECKING COOLANT LEVEL
ENGINE MAINTENANCE - 11
WARNING
Do not remove cooling system fi ller cap when
the engine is hot. Allow the engine to cool and
then remove the pressure cap slowly, allowing the
pressure to vent. Hot coolant, under pressure, may
discharge violently and cause severe burns.
Degas Bottle
The “see-through” degas bottle is connected to the
heat exchanger by a small hose. The degas bottle
collects coolant that expands with rising temperature,
and would otherwise overfl ow from the system. Coolant
level should be at or slightly above the “ADD” mark on
the bottle when the system is cold. Coolant should be
added ONLY to the bottle when the system cools. Add
specifi ed coolant as required.

FLUSHING COOLING SYSTEM - SEA-WATER
SECTION
To prevent silt and/or salt build-up in the cooling system
(fresh or raw-water cooled), fl ush the sea-water section
of the cooling system with fresh water at specifi ed
intervals. Close seacock (if applicable) before removing
inlet hose.
CAUTION
Do not operate the engine without suffi cient amount
of water being supplied to the sea-water pump.
The sea-water pump impeller may be damaged and
subsequent overheating damage may result.
CAUTION
Do not run the engine above 1500 RPM when
fl ushing. Suction created by the sea-water pump
may collapse the fl ushing hose, causing the engine
to overheat. Watch the temperature gauge while
fl ushing to ensure the engine does not overheat.

TESTING COOLANT FOR ALKALINITY
It is recommended that the coolant in the fresh-water
section be tested each year for alkalinity. Coolant
that is not alkaline has lost the effectiveness of its
rust inhibitors, which can lead to internal corrosion and
cooling system problems. It is recommended to replace
the standard ethylene glycol coolant in the system every
two years to prevent a build-up of harmful chemicals
within the fresh-water system.
WARNING
Do not remove cooling system fi ller cap when
the engine is hot. Allow the engine to cool and
then remove the pressure cap slowly, allowing the
pressure to vent. Hot coolant, under pressure, may
discharge violently and cause severe burns.
1. Obtain red litmus paper from a local supplier
(drugstore, laboratory, etc.).
2. Remove the pressure cap from the coolant fi ller
neck and insert one end of the litmus paper into
the coolant.
3. If red litmus paper turns blue, coolant is alkaline
and does not need to be replaced. If the litmus
paper remains red, the coolant is not alkaline and
must be replaced.
ENGINE MAINTENANCE - 11
WARNING
Do not remove cooling system fi ller cap when
the engine is hot. Allow the engine to cool and
then remove the pressure cap slowly, allowing the
pressure to vent. Hot coolant, under pressure, may
discharge violently and cause severe burns.
DRAINING FRESH-WATER COOLING SYSTEM
NOTICE: To protect the environment, dispose of
coolant properly. Check your local restrictions for proper
disposal instructions of removed coolant.
NOTICE: Refer to cooling system water fl ow diagrams
for drain locations.
1. Remove the following drain plugs to drain coolant
from the fresh-water cooling system:
− Drain plug on heat exchanger
− Remove the large hose from the engine
block water circulating pump, or drain plug on
circulation pump
− Drain plugs on the cylinder block (one on
each side)
2. Remove the following drain plugs to raw water
from the fresh-water cooling system:
3. After system has drained completely, coat all the
drain plugs with PerfectSeal (or equivalent) and
reinstall in the proper locations. Reinstall the
hose(s) on the water circulating pump and tighten
the clamps securely.

FILLING FRESH-WATER COOLING SYSTEM
A new extended life engine coolant known as DEXCOOL™ is used in your engine(s). It is imperative to
note the following about DEX-COOL™ engine coolant:
• IT IS PINK IN COLOR TO DISTINGUISH IT
FROM CONVENTIONAL COOLANT.
• THE SERVICE CHANGE INTERVAL ON
ENGINES BUILT WITH DEX-COOL™ IS 5
YEARS.
• TO MAINTAIN FULL CORROSION
PROTECTION DURABILITY, DEX-COOL™
MUST NOT BE MIXED WITH CONVENTIONAL
(CONTAINING SILICATE) ENGINE COOLANTS.
• DEX-COOL™ IS AN ETHYLENE GLYCOL
BASED PRODUCT, THEREFORE, BOIL AND
FREEZE PROTECTION ARE MEASURED IN
THE SAME FASHION AS CONVENTIONAL
COOLANTS.
TO FULLY REALIZE ITS MANY ADVANTAGES,
DEX-COOL™ MUST NEVER BE MIXED WITH
CONVENTIONAL COOLANTS.
3. Start the engine and operate at idle speed
(800-1000 RPM) to purge any air from the
system. When the system is full, install the
pressure cap.
ANTIFREEZE
SOLUTION
Figure 11-10 Filling F.W.C. System (6.0L)
DEX-COOL™ can become contaminated by
inadvertently topping-off with conventional coolant,
adding conventional coolant to the system or even
if fi ll/drain containers are shared between coolants.
If contamination occurs, the cooling system must be
immediately drained and fl ushed, and refi lled with DEXCOOL™. No short-term damage will occur, however,
the service interval will be reduced from 5 years to 2
years.
The fresh-water cooling side of the cooling system
must be fi lled with a 50/50 mixture of DEX-COOL™
(or equivalent, which meets GM6277M) extended life
antifreeze and water solution.
IMPORTANT: More than 50% antifreeze solution can
contribute to an overheating condition.
IMPORTANT: If the engine is being placed in winter
storage, the fresh-water cooling section must be fi lled
with a correct type of coolant and water solution, properly
mixed, to protect the engine to the lowest temperature to
which it will be exposed.
1. Make sure that all drain plugs are properly
installed.
2. Remove the pressure cap. Fill the system
with antifreeze solution until the system is fi lled.

ENGINE MAINTENANCE - 11
The sea-water section of the heat exchanger should
be cleaned whenever there is a noticeable decrease in
cooling effi ciency. You may use the following procedure
for cleaning, or, if the build-up of scale and mineral
deposits is heavy, it is recommended that the heat
exchanger be removed and taken to a repair facility to be
boiled out (such as a radiator repair facility).
1. Remove the bolts securing the heat exchanger
end plates. Remove the end plates and gaskets.
2. Clean the water passages in the heat exchanger
by inserting a suitable-size wire brush into each
passage. Use compressed air to blow out loose
particles.
3. Clean the gasket surfaces on the end plates and
the heat exchanger. Apply PerfectSeal to both
sides of the new gaskets. Install the end plates
and the new gaskets onto the heat exchanger.
Install the bolts and tighten securely.

FUEL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
WARNING
Extreme caution must be exercised when servicing
the fuel system and/or replacing fuel fi lter. Gasoline
is extremely fl ammable and highly explosive under
certain conditions. Be sure the ignition key is off and
do not smoke or allow open fl ame in the area while
servicing. Wipe up any spilled fuel immediately.
WARNING
Extreme caution must be exercised when servicing
the fuel system. The fuel system operates under high
pressure. Use caution when removing or replacing
components, as residual pressure may be present.
WARNING
Make sure that there are no fuel leaks before closing
the engine hatch.
WARNING
Visually inspect unit for fuel leaks before operating
the engine. If fuel leaks are present, DO NOT
operate the engine, contact your service center
immediately.
Fuel Control Cell (FCC) Fuel System
The Fuel Control Cell (FCC) eliminates vapor lock and
air ingestion caused by fuel tank slosh, and provides the
necessary fi ltration and water separation.
The FCC system incorporates two (2) fuel pumps to
provide an uninterrupted fl ow of fuel to your PCM marine
engine. Fuel is fed into the FCC bowl by a low-pressure,
high-volume electric fuel pump. This pump fl ows fuel at
a volume much greater than the fuel fl ow rate required of
the high-pressure pump and engine demands. The highpressure pump, mounted inside the FCC bowl, provides
the necessary fuel pressure and volume to maintain
proper engine performance. The FCC constantly has
an ample supply of fuel to meet the idle, cruise and
acceleration fuel requirements of the engine.
The fuel pressure regulator may be located on the fuel
rail or inside the FCC bowl, controls the fuel pressure
and maintains a constant pressure across the fuel
delivery system. Excess fuel, not used by the engine,
returns to the FCC bowl.
The fuel delivered to the engine by the FCC is fi ltered
by a fi lter and water separator element, which surrounds
the high pressure pump inside the FCC bowl.
As indicated above, fuel enters the FCC bowl from
two (2) locations, the low-pressure pump (initial input)
and the fuel pressure regulator (unused, recirculating
fuel). Fuel exits the FCC bowl at two (2) locations, the
high-pressure output to the fuel injection system and all
excess fuel in the FCC bowl is routed back to the tank
via the return line.

CONTAINER
The transmission oil change should be performed
by an authorized PCM dealer, at specifi ed intervals.
Transmission fl uids should be removed through a copper
tube, that extends to the bottom of the transmission
case, using a suction/vacuum type fl uid extractor.
IMPORTANT: Change the engine oil when the engine
is warm from operation. Warm oil fl ows more freely,
and allows more foreign material and impurities to be
removed.
The engine oil fi lter is remote mounted. The engine
block location, where the fi lter is normally mounted, is
covered with an oil fi lter bypass adapter. DO NOT
remove this adapter when changing the oil.
1. With the engine at normal operating temperature,
locate the oil pan quick drain hose and thread
the hose through the boat’s drain plug hole.
(Figure 11-24). Remove the cap from the end
of the quick-drain hose and insert the discharge
hose into a suitable container. Allow the oil from
the engine to drain until the crankcase is empty.
Reinstall the cap onto the quick-drain hose and
pull the hose back through the drain and secure
the hose at the engine.

The V-Drive support mounts must be removed
before performing the engine alignment.
• For the PCM V-Drive, loosen the trunnion bolt
on the mount, then remove the bolts used
to attach the mount to the CVD mounting
bracket. Slide the mount away from the
bracket. Refer to Figure 11-22.
• For the Walters V-Drive, loosen the trunnion
bolt on the mount, then remove the bolts used
to attach the mount to the V-Drive. Slide the
mount away from the V-Drive unit.
Perform the Engine Alignment as outline in the
following steps. When you have completed the
alignment you will need to re-install the mounts
onto the V-Drive unit. The V-Drive mounts may
need to be adjusted so there is no tension on
the mounting bolts as they are re-installed. Retighten the trunnion bolts to complete the V-Drive
alignment.
