Bought my boat last season and Yearly Maintenance was done. Ive always done my own. Oil/Filter, Fuel/water seperator, and impeller on Volvo Pentas. This is my first Merc. What I got so far

Oil (quicksilver 25w 40)
Oil Filter (quicksilver 35-866340Q03)
Fuel Filter (Didnt see one)
Impeller (looks like a PIA to replace)

What else is there???

Should have a fuel water seperator check by transom. Drive fluid.

Depending on the year, it will have a screw on water separating fuel filter, or a fuel module with a cartridge inside. In either case, it will be starboard side front of the engine, near the seal water pump.
Post the engine serial number and I will tell you which one you have and which impeller to use.

OK. according to your serial number, it uses the spin on filter which should be lower right (starboard) front of the engine. It might have a plastic case that snaps off hiding it. Yes, the sea water pump is a major pain if the rear seat is not removable. It is the late model Gen VII pump and the impeller kit is PN 8M0104229. If the rear end plate has a groove worn in it and that groove cuts into the water ports, you will have to have it flycut or replaced. It won't pull water with the new impeller.
