Items for a Tune-up
Hello, I have a 2007 FS18 I would like to give my boat a good tune-up. I have already replaced the water/fuel seperator. Could someone please provide a list of items needed to do a complete tune-up on my boat and a good place to buy these items Thank you

Re: Items for a Tune-up
That's a pretty good list of things to do every season. Depending on how dirty the water you boat in is, changing the impeller every 2-3 years is a good idea too (some people do it every year).
If you're really wanting to do a "tune-up" then you'd basically want to do the same things you would to a car; change the plugs, wires, cap and rotor, check the belts, clean or replace the spark arrestor, inspect/clean the battery terminals/cables. There's no solid definition for a tune-up, you could go farther by doing things like checking the timing and adjusting the valves but on a 3 year old boat the aforementioned items probably comprise a pretty decent tune-up. |
