Yamaha lower unit
Allright, I finally broke down and changed my LU oil yesterday. It's been a little over 2 years, well actually, it's the first time it's been changed, was a new motor. Oil looked good, no water. There was a good bit of metal on the magnetic plug. I know some metal is supposed to be normal, but how much is too much?:confused:

Small filings are OK. It almost paste like. Filings or shavings are bad.

If I ever change mine ('06 model) I'll letcha know what mine looks like :p
Been thinkin about doin that, oh - and changin the 50 weight in my
oil bath hubs that's sposed to be done every year (and ain't never been) :eek:

Anything over a 1/4 cup is unaceptical. Just kiddin as long as there are no large chunks and it like a paste your ok.
-
I clened it with my fingers and rubbed it between my finger tips and couldn't feel anything but oil, so that would be ok?

You're good to go.

Worked good for me, but made a mess when I pulled the adapter.
