I like to add oil into the filter to saturate the fabric pleats before putting the new 1 on so that the high pressure oil flow into the new filter doesn't tear the inside pleats. I also like to remove my oil fill cap before draining so there's not a vacuum created while draining. 1 last thing, running the engine for 5 minutes before draining makes the oil heat up & drain faster & thins it out so you get every last drop of old oil out of it. Nice step by step video, keep'em coming.
Thanks for the cost saving tip. I'll be repowering this spring to a 60merc and your videos have helped me learn 4 strokes over my old 50merc two stroke.
Very good video greatly appreciate it I would like to see you do one on the lower end and the fuel filter also do you know if you change the seals when you do the lower end thanks
Mark. Your the man. I am paying to have all the service done while the boat and motor are under warranty but as soon as that expires it is all on me. Did you let the oil drain overnight?

Watched again before changing oil today, a good refresher.

I’ll do that next time I change it

No it took about fifteen minutes to be completely drained
Did you warm the engine up first or did you change it cold? Thanks for the great content!
I changed it without running motor.
Thanks!
Thanks Mark.
Great presentation!
What's up Mark ? why didn't you do the lower unit oil at the same time ?? Just asking a question Tight lines brother
I did the lower a few weeks earlier didn’t film it
Thanks
My book shows 10w30 oil for all weather temperatures
How much do they charge for a oil change??
When do you change the lower unit gear oil?
I just changed mine yearly it’s cheap.
You skipped a major step. Check the oil level on the dipstick.
