Quick question, at what interval is it recommended to replace outdrive oil? Oil is clean and right level, but been in there for 4 years thy I know of. Outdrive is Volvo SX C1. Secondly, how much oil does it hold if it does need changed out?

I have a Volvo Cobra SX and my manual states it should be changed every season, checked level every outing. Uses synthetic API GL-5, 75w-90 gear lube. Approximately 71 ounces.

Ayuh,... I drain, 'n change mine each fall, just to be sure it's clean 'n water free....

Otherwise, a Split case might be what you find, come spring....
