Default Question about draining the oil on an OMC outdrive

Thanks Bill and RG.

I learned 3 things:

1) The manual was written poorly and I should leave the top dip stick
in place when I'm removing either drain plug and then once installed
remove it as I fill the outdrive.

2) Drain from the bottom hole but fill from the middle hole contrary
to what my boat mechanic says!!.

3) Check the oil level after running at low power for a few minutes
to be sure all air has been removed and the level is correct.


Thanks
Kip
