What engine do you have? I'm not at my computer where I can find engine by SN,
Look up in the Adults only sticky (first post in this forum) there is lots of information on winterizing.

He has a MERCRUISER - ("205" H.P. V6 (1986) MR/Alpha One Engine
Serial # 0A563582 Model # 02052346

Along with drive serial number: 0A531993 Model number 01849016, 1986 MERCRUISER MC1 1.84:1

He should buy engine service manual #7, Merc part number 90-12410 MSRP: $84.95

And also drive service manual #6 R/MR/ALPHA ONE, Merc part number 90-129342 from a mercruiser dealer someplace or here at iboats.com to help support his local economy or boating forums.:)

Here is your engine parts for your engine.

Thanks for having me re-look up his info, And your right, He has a V6 not a V8 engine, so I corrected the post above.

Sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused.:redface:

That is good information, but I think it would still be a good idea for him (the original poser) to post what engine he has or at least verify he has an 86 V6. I've seen lots of wrong serial numbers posted in these forums. One guys V6 turned into a 4 cyl with pictures.
