    First off, you can probably use the links pinned at the top of the page to download a manual in pdf format. Secondly, I'd be sure it has the correct amount of fluid, which is probably around 39 ounces, before you run the engine.

    Mine is a 07' 150VMAX and holds just over a quart. 33.13 oz. I believe it is. Pump till it runs out of the top hole.
