| Service Bulletins (Stern drive, Gas Engines) | |||
We suggest that you contact your servicing dealer if you see a bulletin listed below that concerns your motor. Keep in mind that most service bulletins, are only intended to advise service personnel of updated parts and or service procedures, and not to announce recalls and or problems with a specific product. By law, Owners of recalled products are advised, by mail, directly by the manufacturer with information concerning the recall. Special Note: Just because you don't see a recall or service bulletin listed here, for your product, doesn't mean there isn't one. The only way to know for sure is to contact your selling dealer. Our tip is to check with your servicing dealer, each year, for at least the first three to four years. Service bulletins are constantly being published that may enhance the performance and operation of your motor. |
