2008 Mercury 115HP Lower Unit Gear Oil Change-HOW TO!!

[@fishing4dinner]

Amazing how simple this project is compared to what a shop will charge. Great work! Yep you were right, that old oil coming out had no signs of water WHEW! The tip to screw plug in first before bottle is gold!!!

[@EricGaskamp]

Thank you for the kind words, sir!! I just knew with my luck I was going to have water in there!! Dodged a bullet!! I even told myself before I made the video to screw the plug in first!! 🤣

Did you say that’s the first time you’ve changed your lower gear case oil in 15 years? Did I hear that right?

[@wagonator6891]

Hi. I would suggest that you Replace the float switch in the fuel supply module (FSM) before it fails on you. I had mine fail on me recently an left me stranded, I'm now replacing the switch, and rebuilding the FSM with a seal kit an hose kit.

Wondering, why do you fill to the vent hole and not the oil level hole ??

[@terrybull4604]

I thougt the same

[@EricGaskamp]

To be completely honest, I totally missed that when doing this. I plan on a follow up video to this. I'm so used to the OMC's with only two plugs, one at the bottom and one at the top. Thank you for brining this up

Is there anything to do on the prop when changing the gear fluid? Asking for a friend...

[@EricGaskamp]

I’m glad you asked! You should always pull the prop and check for fishing line!! I knew I forgot something!
