Hoist Points for engines equipped with lifting lugs.

WARNING

Retaining bolt must be torqued to 50 ft/lb. A lifting strap or chain must be used to lift the

MV10 engine. The chain must have a load bearing capacity of at least 1,000lb. All hooks,

cranes and rigging used to lift the engine must also have at least 1,000lb load capacity.

The MV10 should be lifted by a chain loop or strap slung between two lift points on the

engine.

Front Lift Point - The front lift point of the

MV10 is best provided by lifting eye PN:

PT00755C. This bracket attaches to the port

head with a 7/16 UNC x 5” bolt (50 ft/lb

torque) and provides an eyelet to attach a

lifting strap. This bracket greatly reduces the

chance of damage to the engine and

accessories. See Fig. 1.

Fig. 1

Rear Lift Point - The rear lifting point is the

large hole located in the accessory mounting

plate. The lifting chain must be looped

through this hole and securely fastened with a

bolt. A spreader bar should be used to

ensure that the chain does not tug sideways

into the valve covers. Great care must be

taken as the engine is being lifted or damage

to the engine may occur. Ensure the chain

loops freely between the pick up points and is

not fowling the headers or any other part of

the engine or wiring. See Fig. 2

Exhaust System

There are currently two styles of headers available for the MV10, straight back and down-

turned, with several configurations of the down-turned offered.

Fig. 3 Down-Turned (MVP 0117) Fig. 4 Straight Back (MVP 0118)

Down-turned headers are the standard headers offered with the MV10 (Fig. 3). Optional

tail pipes are available which have been designed to exit through transoms drilled for

traditional Bravo applications. Straight back headers are available for special use

applications (Fig. 4).

Down-turned headers are also available in “straight up” (Fig. 5) and “tipped-in” (Fig. 6)

configurations. This aids in gaining necessary header to boat clearance. Some dual-engine

configurations may require one straight up and one tipped-in on each engine to gain

additional clearance.

Header Installation

Great care should be taken when installing headers onto the engine. The cylinder heads

are made of aluminum and the threads could strip if bolts are misaligned or over-tightened.

Begin by loosely installing all the hardware and then draw the header in evenly by going

over all bolts several times. Final torque should be 25 ft lb.

Tailpipes for a standard Bravo set-up are available directly from ILMOR Marine Engines

under part number MVP 0152. Custom tailpipes are to be obtained directly from CMI.

Care must be taken to provide adequate clearance between the tailpipes and the transom.

If the tailpipes do interfere with the transom they can put excessive load into the header

causing cracking, premature failure and possible engine damage.

The headers provided with the MV10 connect to tailpipes with CMI 4-1/2” sweeper flex

flare clamps available from CMI, ILMOR Marine Engines or any ILMOR authorized service

center.

MV10 tailpipe clamps are available for purchase from any of the following:

• ILMOR Marine P/N MVP 0169 (Clamp kit includes clamp, tailpipe

jumper, hose clamps, gasket, t-bolt & nut)

• CMI P/N 36260 (Clamp only)

• RG RAY P/N 500048-1 (Clamp only)

Fuel Injection System – All Models

WARNING

All fuel system plumbing must be in accordance with US Coast Guard (USCG) regulations

using hose which meets or exceeds SAE Standard J1527DEC85.

All hose used for fuel delivery must meet or exceed specification in USCG regulations

sec.183.540 for recreational boating.

WARNING

The fuel pump supplies fuel to the engine a regulated pressure (see MV10 Service Parts

Listing). Great care must be taken with all items in the fuel system to avoid leaks. Leaks

could lead to a gasoline fire in the engine compartment. All lines and fittings used in

the fuel system must meet or exceed the USCG requirements for fuel systems.

Each MV10 is supplied with a complete fuel delivery system installed. Components

include: fuel pump, water separator fuel filter and fuel pressure regulator with high

pressure fuel filter. A ½” I.D. supply line must be plumbed from the fuel tank to the input of

the water separator and a 3/8” I.D. return line (on return fuel systems) must be run back to

the fuel tank. Warranty coverage may be denied if fuel supply line smaller than ½” I.D. or

fuel return line smaller than 3/8” I.D is used. Should you have any questions regarding fuel

system installation, immediate technical assistance is available from ILMOR Marine

Engines by calling (734) 456-3600 or e-mail: sales&[email protected]

All fuel system components supplied with the MV10 have been selected for best

performance. Failure to use the supplied components could lead to engine failure or

possibly fire. Use of non-ILMOR supplied components is done entirely at the owners’ own

risk. Warranty coverage may be denied if the engine(s) are modified in any way, by any

person after delivery by ILMOR, including the use of non-ILMOR specified service parts

unless such modification or use of parts is requested and approved by ILMOR in writing.

Please call ILMOR Marines Engines before altering the fuel delivery system in any

way.

FUEL RAILS

The fuel rails are fed from the regulator output using a quick-release fitting and a

combination of hard line and USCG approved fuel line. The fuel rails are connected at the

rear of the engine through the use of the OEM, crossover pipe. See fuel system diagram

on page 11 for further fuel system detail.

FUEL RAIL COVERS

On the underside of each cover there are three rubber grommets that, when the cover is

installed, snap over three ball-nut mounts on the engine (see figure 8). Some models are

not equipped with carbon fiber fuel rail covers.

Rail Cover Mounts - To remove covers, carefully feel where the mounts are located and

slowly pull straightaway from the engine. Installation is best accomplished by applying

soapy water to the grommets, lining up the grommets & mounts then applying a light but

steady pressure directly to the grommet/mount location.

FUEL FILTER / WATER SEPARATOR – Fig. 9

Fuel supply from the tank must be run directly to the fuel filter / water separator. The

separator is located near the rear of the engine on the port side. All fuel supply lines on

the suction side of the fuel pump must be a minimum of ½” inside diameter or larger where

possible. The inlet/outlet plugs can be fitted as needed to provide right-hand or left-hand

orientation following the flow direction arrows cast into the filter base.

FUEL PUMP – Fig. 10

The fuel supply plumbing from the filter to the fuel pump is a combination of hard, formed

steel and soft rubber lines. The fuel pump is mounted on the port side of the engine just

above the oil pan rail. A soft bracket and two bolts hold the pump to the block. The MV10

utilizes a “Smart Start” strategy for safety and is controlled via the electronic control unit

(ECU). When turning the ignition key to ON or START, the pump will run for

approximately four seconds to prime the fuel system and then stand-by until the engine

starts. The fuel pump will turn on and remain on while the engine is running. When the

engine stops running the ECU will automatically shut the fuel pump off.

FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR – Fig. 11

High pressure fuel from the cooler is plumbed to the pressure regulator. There are three

ports on the regulator. The smallest of which is a 1/8” return that is plumbed back to the

separator. Excess fuel recirculates back to the filter / water separator then flows through

the cooler in an effort to minimize vapor lock. See fuel regulator figure 11 on page 14 for

further detail. A complete fuel system schematic is available on page 11 as figure 7.

FUEL COOLER – Fig. 12 & 13

Once the pressurized fuel has left the pump, the fuel supply is cooled through the use of a

heat exchanger. The cooler is located beneath the engine, ahead of the oil pan sump. This

cooler is dual-purpose, cooling both the fuel and engine oil with cool seawater. The fuel

enters on the port side, flows through the cooler and exists on the starboard side of the

engine.

Throttle Cable Connection

Throttle Stop and Cable Mount - The

MV10 is provided with mountings suitable

for use with industry standard Morse

cables.

The throttle is spring loaded and is closed

(or at idle) when resting on the throttle

lever stop screw. The cable should be

fitted to allow full-throttle control

movement, from the idle stop (throttle

closed) to the full-throttle stop. Any

fasteners used should be self retaining

(Nylock, K-nuts or interference self locking

nuts) Fig. 14

To ensure proper throttle operation, operate the throttle system prior to attaching the cable

to the engine. The movement must be smooth and free with no binding.

The full-throttle stop and cable adjustment must be set such that full-throttle is full travel of

the throttle handle at the helm. Excess movement can place strain on the cable and other

components, which could result in component failure. The idle stop is provided at the

engine by a hard stop screw which must never be adjusted.

IMPORTANT

When fully warm, the engine will idle at 800 rpm and is electronically controlled via the

ECU. Adjustment of the throttle butterflies will not change the idle speed and could cause

significant engine damage. It is important that the throttle quadrant is resting on the closed

or idle stop when the throttle butterfly is on the idle stop.
