Costly Repairs on Outboard Engines can be avoided
The most common cause of costly repairs is lack of maintenance. Annual maintenance should include:change the water pump, gear lube, change fuel filters ( 2 on engine), change spark plugs, grease points and inspection all of which can usually be done in 3.5-4 hours.

High Tech Marine is full of gratitude and we are looking forward to another great year working with all you boaters. To celebrate our first year we are offering again our great fall rate of $65 per hour and no service call charge.
Winter Maintenance
Now that summer has come and gone, boaters should remember that fall is a great time to take care of all the issues you might have been putting off from the summer usage of your boat. Have High Tech Marine come to your boat and check off the maintenance issue from this check list:
It’s easier to maintain than fix. Following simple
maintenance procedures on a regular basis helps
ensure proper operation and maintains the value of your outboard.
• Your boat’s ready when you are. Regular
maintenance helps make sure your boat’s ready
at a moment’s notice.
• Nobody wants a boating hassle. Spending a
relatively small amount of time making sure your
outboard’s in proper condition means hours of
trouble-free enjoyment.
Winterize Check List
Change the lubricant in engine transmission or the outboard lower unit
Apply fogging if called for by manufacturer
Drain the boat's fuel tanks as much as possible
Fill the boat’s fuel tanks completely full
Add biocide and/or stabilizing agents to fuel
Change the fuel filters
Add antifreeze to the engine’s cooling system
Also remember to clean and protect your gelcoat. By cleaning and protecting your gelcoat you also help to protect the integrity of your boat. Special cleaners are recommended. To remove dirt and mild stains, many fiberglass cleaners are available at marine supply stores. There are many types of specialty cleaners, including some with wax to protect the gelcoat.
As always if you have any questions for the Yamaha/OMC certified marine mechanic, feel free to email High Tech Marine at high.techmarine@yahoo.com. Come visit our website at www.hightechmarine.org. See you on the water soon
