Need Maintenance Info on 1995 Mercury 115hp 2-Stroke Outboard Motor
			 
			 
			
		
		
		
			
			My second hand boat comes with a 1995 Mercury 115-hp 2-stroke outboard 
motor.  Unfortunately, the boat doesn't come with an owner manual and I 
don't know when the manufacturer will mail the owner manual to me.  I 
need some info about maintaining this motor: 
 
-  It is a 2-stroke motor with oil-injection (this means oil is not 
mixed with fuel in the tank).  I cannot find anything that looks like 
an oil filter.  Is this normal? 
 
-  Do I expect to see a fuel filter somewhere to trap water in the 
fuel?  Is it a good idea to retrofit a fuel filter to the fuel line if 
the fuel system doesn't come with a fuel filter? 
 
-  I am trying to locate the screw hole for draining engine oil from 
the lower part of the outboard motor.  I can see two screws in the 
right side of the lower part of the outboard.  They are a couple inches 
apart, and one is above the other by an inch.  Which one is the one 
that I should unscrew in order to drain oil from the lower part of the 
motor?  Where is the vent hole for draining oil? 
 
Thanks in advance for any info.
