First time poster here, I have been reading the board here for a bit and have learned much.<br /><br />I have a Evinrude CE40TLESR S/N C2465925 40hp engine, what service manual do I need? where can I find one? I think it is a 1990 model.<br />thanks<br />Dan

Re: Engine manual

The gurus here will tell you that factory manuals are the best way to go. Check ebay. Also try kencook.com or marineengine.com<br />The factory manuals are worth the extra few $$. <br /><br />I have a clymer manual for my motor. It has been helpful. However, it lacks/omits some of the information that I would prefer to have. I say trust the iboats gurus and go with a factory manual.

Re: Engine manual

I have a Seloc manual and wish I would have bought the OMC manual. The Seloc manual is very lacking to put it nicely. :(

What does OMC mean. Kencook has owners, service, and parts manuals for my engine, $30 each. Which will I need for a tune up and to change the pull cord? Thanks
