I dropped the lower unit on my Alpha 1 Gen II today and replaced the impeller. I didn't drain the gear oil prior to removing the lower unit. The gear oil was changed recently and is good. I'm wondering if I need to add fluid with a pump from the bottom up or I can just pull the vent plug and top up the fluid monitor in the engine compartment. It didn't lose that much fluid when I separated the housings. My gut says just top it up at the fluid monitor. Any feedback here? Thanks.
