No James, those are that "special" pair I had on when I asked you to bend over and cough
I washed 'em off so they'll be ready for my next Dirty Sanchez victim:Exploding

as far as I know, they're aren't too many outboard motors out there that have a lower unit "oil/seawater" mix when you run them.  The oil is in its own separate housing
Lower unit oil stays where it belongs when you remove the Lower unit. No need to drain it unless you want to add that in as an additional maintenance task.

Thanks for the step by step. Cool. Although, my Yamaha manual doesn't say anything about the beer..?

That's good to see. I've got to start doing some thing other than just changing the drive oil on mine. I hear the impeller for my 4.2 ltr Cummins is $140 or so.
Nice PermaTrim by the way. I was just out on the company boat Friday and was again amazed at the difference those things make. I love the one on my boat!
