Gear Oil Change Honda 40/50HP

This video is how to change your gear oil at home for your 40/50 HP Honda outboard. Now almost every Honda is the same to change. Same location for drain screws just different washers or o-ring. So don't worry. Other motor brands may have them hidden like Mercury will have the lower drain behind the prop or Yamaha will have it under the intake screen. So just keep that in mind if your working on one of them. The only trouble you will have is if someone before you has mangled the screw head. I will show you the special tool we use on those and others you probably have at home in this video. Is this video professional? No, but I try to be as much as possible. Have I been trained to work on these? Yes, by Honda and I have been for 20 years. Your gonna be ok!
The o-ring shown in the video which is used on almost every Honda now a days is O-RING 91301-ZW4-003 When this number is superseded someday this old one will still take you too it. Our other washer is this one.
Plastic Washer 90507-921-000 This is the clear plastic gasket I showed you. Remember to try and use what recomended for your motor. In a pinch look at the seating area on the gear case and the screw. Will the gasket you pick work for you? That's all. Remember to that lots of motors take different gear oil especially high performance. Both of my and all the Honda's in my videos took 80w-90. Good luck with your oil change and don't hesitate to contact me if you run into trouble. Keep the ground clean and recycle your used oil.
Thanks for watching!
