Hello,
I have a 1998 carver 405 aft cabin with 454 XLI. I've been trying to locate an engine service manual but haven't had any luck. Does anyone have any links or contacts for me to follow up.
Thanks in advance Tim

Re: Engine service manuals
What brand engine do you have? Merc, Volvo, Crusader? Google your engine, not the boat and you will find one. That’s what I did for my Crusader 8.1’s. Instead of googling 454, you might try 7.4.

Re: Engine service manuals
I have the same engines ,if you will google "crusader xli manuals"you will see several options. And depending on what your looking for ( operator,parts etc)some are free downloads and some will be manuals you'll have to pay for.
