It's better than nothing, but don't waste money on one....
There is often misinformation in there.....
They try to cover too much in one book....
Get the Merc manuals, one for the engine, one for the drive......​

Re: Seloc manual?

i got one when i first got a boat..... then i got educated here on iboats by folks and found that oem was the only way to go..... the seloc now resides in my boat as a better than nothing onboard service manual.... + if i ever need some kindling, i'm ready to start my fire.....

Agree with all above but at least it has more useful info than clymer which also has alot of wrong info. I only had access to a seloc while I waited for delivery of om vp manuals which are not online. I believe most of the mec manuals are available online-lucky you.

WOW, Thanks for the input. That solves that question, ha ha. I was curious because it said repair manual not "service" manual. Made me skeptical. Thanks for saving me a little doe. I'll watch for a real manual.
