I’m new to forum use in general and just now registered here. Thanks for including me
i have a Johnson 50 hp 1959 model year. Best I can
determine is that last time wet was 55 years ago. Waiting on starter to do compression test I was keeping busy by getting down to impeller.
nowfor my question, I drained gear grease and only removed perhaps two table spoons of oil. First I can’t find in manual quantity expected back. Second, Is there something I can flush lower unit out so not to damage seals ( diesel or mineral spirits )or dose it really matter because I should probably redo seals?
thanks John
