    Thumbs Up Best Investment You Can Make For Your Outboard.....

    An OMC/BRP (Real-not Clymer or Seloc) repair and service manual.....don't depend on the info on the web or your dockside buddies to be correct. ***Microphone drop here***

    Thanks for info, outboardbooks.com doesn't have one for mine, parts catalog and operator manual is all they show.
