Thread: Changing gear drive oil

    You fill from the bottom so the air will get out. With that thick of an oil, it would take it forever to drain down and the air to get out.
    I've done all my gear cases myself. Just put it in forward and leave it there until you put it back on. If it won't go, don't bump the starter, just turn the flywheel, or if you can't reach it, turn the propshaft (still in forward) until the driveshaft splines line up.
    I like factory impellers. Make sure you replace all the "O" rings in the pump housing as already mentioned.
    I also put a bit of grease on the impeller or housing, Seems to help it go on to the pump easier.

    You should have Bob's Machine change your gear oil. For what he charges in parts and labor, it's not worth bothering with.

    No doubt, shipping would be just chump change!!!
