Subject: Islandia oil lines reversed No. 2004-6

YEAR MODEL MODEL NUMBER SERIAL NUMBER
5175 Starting with US-CEC50000H304 through US-CEC50114A404
5176 Starting with US-CEC52000I304 through US-CEC52070A404
2004 Islandia™

PROBLEM
Some 2004 Islandia boats have the oil lines from the external oil tank inverted as connected to the engine. When the engine is run with the lines connected improperly, the #6 cylinder can hydrolock with oil, causing severe engine damage, and no oil will be drawn from the external tank, activating the alarm and putting the engine in the limp home mode. The following hose connection information is true of all Mercury engines in use by BRP.

SOLUTION AND PROCEDURE
The two lines connected to the cap on the external tank are the oil supply line [1] (black with a blue stripe) and the pressure line [2] (solid black). The oil supply line should be connected to the higher fitting in the center of the cap. The pressure line should be connected to the lower fitting placed off-center in the cap.

The oil supply line [1] (blue/black) should be connected to an in-line oil filter on the port side of the engine.

The pressure line [2] (black) should be connected to a connector and short piece of hose that is connected to the engine crankcase on the starboard side of the engine. If the lines are connected correctly at both the cap and the engine, no corrections are necessary.

If the lines are reversed at the engine, cut both tie wraps at the oil tank cap and move the lines to the opposite fittings on the cap. Mark them as shown with a paint pen (obtained locally). Refasten using 2 tie wraps (P/N 293 750 002) or equivalent.

NOTE: Mercury has always marked the oil line with a blue stripe. Marking the lines as shown will clarify any questions when future service is required.

Remove the lanyard cap to prevent spark at the spark plugs. Remove the #6 spark plug. Turn the engine over for several revolutions to purge the crankcase of oil that may have run into the cases during storage. Please check, and if necessary, correct all 2004 Islandia boats in stock prior to delivery. If you have delivered any of the models listed, please call your customers and arrange inspection of these oil lines as soon as possible. 2 / 3 2004-6 Warranty
