Silly Volvo Penta DuoProp Questions...

[WillyBWright]

Where do I drain the gearlube? Do I have to yank the props like a Bravo? Do I need a special wrench for the forward prop?

You pull the front prop with a special wrench. Drain is at the bottom after you pull the prop.

That's what I was afraid of.

Many thanks!

Also depends on which DP you have. The older 290 style had the drain plug in the housing like a Merc, the SX style DP-S has the drain plug behind the fwd prop.
