As far as I know, there was only one Owner's Manual. The M1UZ manual is a must-have (if not for you, then for your eventual mechanic). It must be what a typical modern engine manual looks like - WOW!

Bargain too, at under $50. Have your local dealer order it.

thanks for the info on t-belt Pete,  I guess I am a ways off (800 hours to go) so wont worry about it for now.  I tried changing one in a car before.  I guess I am not gifted with mechanical logic, so I won't be doing my own.  How often is it recommended to change the oil?  Every 100 hrs?  I have been doing it annually, as I put about 100 per year on her.  I had to replace the impeller last year, easy part to get.   Again, I didn't do it, I'm dangerous with my hands.

200 hrs. Mobil 1, I use a Mobil 1 oil filter for a 2000 Lexus LS400. I change once a season, I get out about 180 hrs a year.

1/4 the maintenance cycle of an Indmar of the same vintage. Gotta love it.

Hate to admit my average is 50 hours, but I change all the fluids and filters and the impeller each January. Would like to do it in the fall, but it never happens that way.
