I have a 2000 model 5.0 EFI Mercruiser. Engine serial is 0L641417. Has about 285 hours on engine. I am planning a spring tune-up for just routine maintenance. I havent taken my boat from dry storage yet so it is not where i can look at it today. I would like to gather the parts I need ahead of time before retrieving the boat. I have searched the threads for two hours for some info with alot of returns and not all answers. So, a few questions.
Plan is to:
-Decarbon procedure (please post link or instructions to refresh my memory)
-Replace Spark Plugs, Rotor, Dist Cap. (any other components need changing)
-WHAT are the best plugs to use for replacement and Gap?
-Clean flame arrestor
-Change Fuel filter H20 seperator (may already be done with winterization)
Are there other things that need to be done to this engine besides what is listed above?
Thank everyone for any and all responses!
