Here is the link to the pressure tester I used.

Cool trick, thanks for sharing! Did you do anything to get all the water out of the lower unit before re-sealing the prop shaft?

@JackedUpFishing 3 ай бұрын

No I pretty much got it all out when it drained and whatever trace amounts will evaporate pretty quickly. But to be sure I check my fluid every other trip since I run 100 mile plus one way most trips.

How are the propshaft seals holding up with the powertech prop? I had mine go on my Yamaha 250 SHO and Yamaha asked what prop I was using... I lied and said Yamaha T2.. but I am using Merc Bravo 1 XS. Can not understand how a prop can burn up propshaft seals?? Thanks!

@JackedUpFishing 3 ай бұрын

They are holding up good so far

@getcrazyfpv2498 2 күн бұрын

Got a question- when stacking the seals- aren’t you supposed to stack the seals with first one-cupped side down to keep fluid in and second one-cupped side out to keep water out????

@JackedUpFishing Күн бұрын

I thought so too but it states in service manual to put them the same direction.

broo it happened to me that I changed the oil in my lower unit and I accidentally put a little pressure while having the top screw on and oil leaked through the shaft seal but then I filled it to its level and cleaned the oil and so far it hasn't leaked not a drop, my question; Will I have problems running it?

Keep checking it. If it has any water in it you need to replace the seals.

Shaft seems to be bent or at leat not true, that'll cause seal failure.

@JackedUpFishing Ай бұрын

I have had some people say that. I will actually check it out when I pull again. I think it's an optical illusion though. I just checked the fluid the other day and have put over 1000 miles on her. It was super clean with no water in it. Thank God! Appreciate the comment

@@JackedUpFishing excessive vibration would happen if it was bent, though so maybe it is just an illusion from the camera lens.
