No 100hr service?

according to the folks at indmar, 100 hr service is a dealer preference. if oil is changed and boat is stored properly, there should not be aneed for 100 hr service or any other scheduled service. following the rec. service schedule in the manual is all that should be necessary if all systems operate as they were designed to.

There in lies the problem, we all know that parts fail before their expected and designed to.

According several 4 or 5 inboard service techs at different marinas in michigan, shaft alignment should remain as set at the factory unless there is a catostrophy, like hitting something in the water or a signifacant jarring to the boat, like an accident on the water or on the trailer.

That's what i learned from probable 20 phone calls and emails and 3 or 4 hours of discussion related to my fuel issue

I have to disagree about shaft alignment. It should be checked and aligned to within .003 or less. Period. To not do so is either lazy or they don't know how or just don't want to. They probably never get their tires balanced or rebalanced!
