The engine oil should be warm. Remove the oil drain

hose from its attachment bracket and lower it into a con-

tainer and allow the oil to drain, or attach a pump to the

end

the drain hose and pump out the old oil. Make sure

the oil drain hose is capped and properly secured in its

holder after all the old oil has been drained.

NOTE:

Always observe the old oil as it is removed. A yellow/

gray emulsion indicates the presence

water in the oil.

Although this condition is rare, it does require prompt

attention to prevent serious damage. Call a competent

mechanic

water is present in the oil. Raw water present

in the oil can be the result

a fault in the exhaust system

attached to the engine and/or a siphoning

raw water

through the raw water cooling circuit into the exhaust,

filling the engine. This problem is often caused by the

poor location

the syphon brake. See WESTERBEKE'S

REPLACE

THE

OIL

FILTER

When removing the used oil filter, you may find it helpful

and cleaner

punch a hole in the upper and lower portion

the old filter to drain the oil from it into a container before

removing

it.

This helps to lessen spillage. An automotive fil-

ter wrench should be helpful in removing the old oil filter.

Place some paper towels and a plastic bag around the

filter when unscrewing it to catch any oil left in the filter.

Inspect the old oil filter as it is removed to make sure that

the rubber sealing gasket comes

off

with the old oil filter.

this rubber sealing gasket remains sealed against the

engine block, gently remove it. When installing the new

oil filter element, wipe the filter gasket's sealing surface

on the engine block free

oil and apply a thin coat

clean engine oil to the rubber gasket on the new oil filter.

Screw the filter onto the threaded oil filter stub, and

tighten the filter firmly by hand.
