  • Paid for itself the first time I read it!
This is a MUST HAVE for every boater! At first reading, I quickly learned I was doing wrong by leaving my out-drive up in storage,(I see alot of people doing it),which promotes outdrive bellows problems usually leading to ripping of the bellows which is "FUN" to replace & costly,(Seloc covers this repair too). This book has great information for new & experienced boaters who wants to do hands-on maintainence & troubleshooting. Just learning that more than paid for itself! They even stress the DO's & DON'Ts This great book covers everything from 1964-1991. They offer newer models as well all covering complete engines,outdrives,wiring& torque specs. This is great for a first time boat owner not knowing much & with no owners manual. This great book did qualify for the Amazon FREE shipping. This is my first ever purchase @ Amazon I am very pleased & will be back! Thanx Seloc Thanx Amazon ... show more

  • Must have- down to earth - easy for even the novice to repair large dual Merc V-8 330s - It is one of a few of my boat bibles
This is it folks. Save yourself money. Know your boat, its engine and know how to save your bacon. This is one of the few books I keep aboard at all times (40' live aboard power vessel). It helps with solid troubleshooting skills, and what to do about maintenance, preventitive and when the stuff hits the fan. I have saved already thousands of dollars with a little dedication, spending time to read, and then re-read and confirm my understanding and then go for it. It has made me knowledable, confident and self-sufficient as a live aboard who goes out on the water at least weekly. Buy this book! ... show more

  • Good book to own.
Having a old boat this book had saved be thousands of dollars and time. If you have a oldie but a goodie boat get this book. You know how many (not all) boat mechanics are unfortunately: Mechanic: - "I can't have your boat back for at least 2- 12 weeks and that will be a bazillion dollars". Me: - "All I want is a oil change" Mechanic: - "How dare you question me! Now bow down to me if you want your boat fixed" Me: - "Never-mind, I bought a book and I'll do it myself" Mechanic: - "Noooooooooo!" My Wallet: - "You're the greatest" My Son: - "Gee Golly, you're the best Dad ever" My Wife: - "You look more handsome than normal" ... show more

  • Thoroughness of Manual.
I was pleased to see my new “Mercruiser Service Manual” for my 1970 Mercruiser. I was expecting a manual that would be a little more in detail in some regards than it is. Though the manual will be very helpful for working on the motor and sterndrive, the section on the “trim/tilt” system is seriously lacking in applicable photos. Hose routing through the transom is critical and the manual doesn’t show any photos to aid in replacement of 49 year old hoses. ... show more

I have a 50 year old Merc cruiser stern drive and have found it very difficult to find information on my model. This book has answered many questions that have come up in getting the old girl back online. It is a 1971 that I have owned since 1974. I am an old man now but my grand kids want to go tubing. great boat and great engine. Extremely Happy that I found this online. ... show more

  • Just OK
I purchased this book to aid in "do it yourself" repair of my 1985 Mercruiser 140 / 3.0. I found this book to be poorly organized and difficult to find the necessary information, especially in regards to assistance in diagnosing carburetor problems. I also rebuilt the carburetor (Mercarb)on this engine, and found the SELOC Manual to be of very little assistance in this project. However, it was nice to be able to refer to the tune-up specifications in the appendix of this book. I have done all of my vehicle repair and diagnosis at home for 17 years with the assistance of Haynes automotive repair manuals. I find that these manuals much easier to use as references, the pictures are clearer, more complete, and makes diagnosing problems much easier. I wish Haynes made a repair manual for my Mercruiser engine. An example of problems with this manual... when testing an ignition coil, the instructions start out by stating "align the points in the distributor". Since I have never performed this before, it would be nice if it showed me how to do this. Or if it's in another chapter, annotate with (chapter 3). So I'm paging through the entire book, not knowing if the information is even in the book. This is just one example. I found more help with my boat using online forum, videos and references then I have with this manual. ... show more
