36Install the two retainerswashers, and screwsApply OMC Ultra Lock-271 to the threads of the two retainer screwsInstall the screws and tighten them to 24-26 ftIbs(33-35 Nm)37Before installing lubricant, pressure test and vacuum test the gearcase as follows: Remove the oil level plug and screw in pressure test gauge

Pump pressure up to 3-6 PSI (21-42 kPa)If pressure
gauge indicates leakage, submerge the gearcase in wa ter to determine source of leakage as evidenced by bubblesIf the gearcase pressure gauge does not indicate leakage, increase pressure to 16-18 PSI (110-124 kPa)If pressure does not hold, submerge the gearcase in water and check for source of leakageMake necessary repairs and repeat test Screw in vacuum testerPump out to 3-5 in (76-127 mm) of mercury and see if vacuum holdsThen, pump out to 15 in(381 mm) of mercury and checkIf the gearcase fails to hold on either test, put oil around suspected sealIf leak then stops or oil is drawn in, that seal is defectiveWhen the gearcase checks OK, refill with the proper lubricant38Fill the gearcase with lubricant as follows: Secure the gearcase in an upright position Remove the oil level plug and the drainfill pl ugReplace their seals, if damaged Fill the gearcase with OMC Ultra-HPF gearcase lube until it appears at the oil level holeInstall the oil level plug, then the drainfill plugTighten them to 84-86 in Ibs(9-10 Nm)
