Good day folks. You guys are so awesome that I decided to hit you up for advice again. I got a 40 hp mariner (40 E 6E9 s 104752), 1985 2 cylinder outboard. Basically a copy of those old Yamaha fm series.

Time to change the lower unit gear oil. How much do I put it?

Thanks.

Remove the bottom screw, then remove the top screw. After it's done draining(it will take a while, it's thick) fill the lower unit slowly from the bottom hole until the lube starts coming out the top hole. Replace the top screw, then replace the bottom screw.

Good luck!
