Great advice! I'll check it all out.
THANKS!
Tim



Assuming 100 hours per season ... it's my understanding that the outdrive
should be removed at 2 year intervals to grease the u-joints etc etc. So
while it's off, it makes sense to "break" the outdrive and replace the
impeller (which means you gotta also replace the gear lube). Having said
that, my understanding is that the newer impellers are better made than the
older ones, and should go for 4 years plus no problems. So my fall schedule
is ...
- each fall replace the gear lube
- each second fall remove the outdrive togrease u-joints etc etc
- each fourth fall, while the outdrive is off, split the outdrive and
replace the impeller

And about the outdrive removal and impeller replacement ... I have the
mechanic guy do that :-)
