I have a 96 four wins with 4.3 engine and sx drive (1.66:1)
I drained the outdrive after removing fill plg, oil level dipstick and drain plug ( outdrive in run position.
I then filled the outdrive from the bottom using a pump and put 71 oz. into the unit.
I checked the dipstick level and no reading, it took approx another 10 -15 oz to show full on the dipstick.
1. is the 71 oz shown on the specs not correct?
2. will I do harm with this apparent overfill?
I have not taken the boat out yet so no harm as yet.
or
Where have I gone wrong ??
suggestions please
thanks
Ron
