  1. 5 Tips On Installing Mercruiser Exhaust Manifolds On Your Boat

  2. Boat owners are likely to face different situations in their multiple voyages on the waters. Given the adverse conditions, some components become dysfunctional and beyond normal wear and tear. Exhaust manifolds are those vital components that need proper attention, especially because of their vulnerability to water or rust-like conditions. Assuming you have the basic knowledge of tools and equipment, we have compiled a list of tips for helping you with installing the Mercruiser exhaust manifolds effectively.

  3. 1. Gasket Surfaces. You will need some cleaning and preparation before installing the manifolds. Take a razor or lacquer thinner to remove the paint from the surfaces of the gasket and wipe clean of the debris. Make sure they are clean. 2. Setting the torque. An important tip here. Choose the correct torque setting for the nuts and bolts. Otherwise, it would cause stripped threads, breakage, or unwanted damage. Ultimately, it will cancel out any warranty. 3. Use of lubricants. There’s no necessity to lubricate the threads of nuts and bolts until any instruction is provided to do so. 4. OEM Service Manual. Clearly, the technical documentation is the best thing to follow up and do what it says. If you haven’t got any with the components, contact the Original Equipment Manufacturer. 5. Avoid over-tightening. In a rush to get the perfect fit, don’t over-tighten the pipe fittings and plugs. Leave them snug. Whether you are looking for Mercruiser or OMC exhaust manifolds, you can check online stores with the stock of OEM components and grab good deals.
