Preparing to perform service on my motor. Purchased factory manual and will study the sections on these areas.
Was thinking of building a stand for lower end so I can work on it on my workbench.
Note: I purchased all factory OEM parts, including oils.
Questions:
1. Any tips/advice on these services.., dos, donts, etc?
2. Any special tools needed?
3. Is lower end oil removed before/after water impeller service? Does it matter?
4. Should engine and lower end be run a few minutes before draining…to warm up and allow oils to drain more thoroughly?
Thanks!
