Car Fix DIY Videos

As demonstrated by Frank Cutri, owner and operator of the Platinum Mobile Marine mobile mechanic service, replacing your engine’s sacrificial anodes is a quick process and necessary step for engine maintenance.

Why Anodes Are Important:
Anodes (also called Zincs) prevent corrosion from attacking your seals, hull, paint, etc. They also help protect your engine from similar effects.

Two Ways to Tell if Your Anode Needs Replacing:
– Rub the anode with your hand. If the anode leaves behind a dust-like residue, it’s falling apart and needs to be replaced
– Inspect the anode for signs of corrosion. If the anode is significantly reduced in size, then it’s been doing its job! But, it needs to be replaced.

This how-to video applies to the following Mercury models:
– Verado L6 Models, 200 – 400 HP
