    Lower Unit Lube Change

    I just had all new gears,prop shaft,seals,etc, replaced in my 1989 V4.They used the green Ultra HPF in it.I've run the motor about 20 hours tops since the rebuild.Should I drain it and refill it before winter or just make sure there is no water or metal slivers in it and run it next season?

    You should remove the lower drain plug to see if any water is in the case.
