"Hi all,

We recently wrapped up our first year with our 2000 Volvo Penta SX. As I get ready to winterize, I had planned on greasing the u-joints and gimbal bearing. Of course, I will pull the outdrive to do this. Haven't taken anything apart yet.

On my previous 1987 OMC Cobra there was a gasket 0915840 (part of set 18-2613) that went between the outdrive and the transom assembly. See item 66:

However, on the Volvo I cannot find reference to the same sort of gasket. While it might be obvious once I take it apart, I am trying to avoid surprises. Can anyone tell me whether the Volvo uses a similar gasket?"

I think it is an O-ring that could be reused with some flexable sealant. Lock tight gasket eliminator is good stuff to have.
