6. Replace the lower unit drain gaskets (09168-10022) with the two new gaskets provided in this kit. Ensure mating surfaces are clean and free of debris.
7. Use the included gear oil pump (24OP149) to refill the lower unit with fresh gear oil. Fill from the bottom drain hole until oil appears at the top vent hole.
8. Install the drain plug with new gasket and torque to manufacturer specifications. Replace the vent plug with its new gasket and torque properly.
9. Replace the gasket (09168-12012) on the appropriate engine component as specified in your service manual. Ensure proper seating and torque specifications are followed.
10. Check all connections, filters, and drain plugs for proper tightness. Wipe away any spilled oil or fuel.
