I have a Yamaha 5.0L V8 I/O with a Mercruiser outdrive. I think it is a 2000 or 2001. I was hoping that someone could point me to some more information about this engine. I try to do as much maintenance as I can myself with some help from my brother who is not a mechanic but is an engineer so I think his brain works in the same way! I on the other hand, follow directions well and just try to be careful!
I would like to find a way to be able to properly identify this engine so I can get parts easily. But I have some specific questions / parts I am looking to source for this year's tune up:
Size of oil filter?
Gas filter?
Water pump?
Impellers?
Any help is appreciated. I don't mind doing the legwork if someone can point me in the right direction. I also wonder if I should be in the 'Mercruiser' forum rather than this one??
Thanks
