Mercury Outboards, 3-4 Cylinders, 1965-1989 1st Edition

this book have really good photos and covers everything you need to see.

Book came in great condition for the price. Great deal!

Loads of clear pictures and good explanations that are easy for anyone to understand. Also has lots of "words of warning" for points of concern and they're written in layman's terms so everyone can understand, kind of like when your Grandfather pointed something out to you that was important to know before you made a mistake. I don't think you'll find another manual out there that is both affordable and readily available to the general public for marine repair manuals.SELOC prints GREAT manuals!

Worked for me on 1988 Mercury 50hp 2 stroke outboard motor.

Usually I hate these overbroad aftermarket service manuals, but so far this one is pretty good. The electrical diagram for my motor is perfectly accurate and all of the procedures have worked as described so far.One minor complaint is that there is no procedure for troubleshooting the thunderbold ignition switch box; says it MUST be tested with a factory tester. Well there's a perfectly good procedure here published for free which I used successfully http://issuu.com/cdielectronics/docs/practical_ouboard_ignition_troublesGenerally a prefer factory service manuals but I can't even find one for my motor it's so old. So this was a good use of $30.

SELOC books are very thorough and cover everything. Simple step by step instructions. Even if the illustrations and pictures are from the year 1877. Be sure to read the beginning chapters. There is a lot of good information and things to watch out for and general knowledge you can use on your friends. They will think you are an expert.

I have a 1971 thunderbolt 800, 80 hp. This manual is ready to follow and includes all the information you will need to maintain, repair and adjust your Mercury outboard motor. I have enjoyed it so much I take it to work with me to read in my spare time.

Looks to be a good book I haven't used it for any major repairs yet but it is a typical aftermarket manual it covers a lot of years so it is lacking on key detail but a little common sense and basic know how and it will be fine.
