I'm picking up my boat later today and plan to do oil change. My manual lists both. Can anyone verify which one is on my boat. Thank you.

I also plan to install a strainer that the dealer sold me. It has 1"npt holes for fittings. What size is the inner diameter of the hose. Basically what size fitting do I need. In this picture I have 1" hose Barb but it looks small. I appreciate any information. Thanks

The hose barbs need to be 1 1/4" as the hoses are 1 1/4" ID

You should have a cartridge style filter on your 2017 model engine.

Thank you for the quick responses. Seeing as the hoses are 1 1/4 and the strainer they sold me is 1" will this be a problem ie not enough water flow? Once again thank you.
