Great Information. I just bought a Mercury 250 and made two trips so far. Now I know how to change the oils and do maintenance. I wasn't 100% sure what the nozzle on the side was for. Now I know. Love the Keys and your Channel.

Very informative and I like where Merc put the lower unit drain plug. It forces the "lazy" boater to pull the props. Nothing worse than braid fishing line wrapped in your prop shaft causing damage. Good content & Tight Lines..!!!

I love the new mercs. Got a 225 with 1300 hours and the only issue was bad fuel and it wouldn’t keep running which wasn’t an issue due to the engines. Otherwise everything runs perfect which is amazing. Love the supercharged v6 torque.

Just Subscribed. Great Idea with the beads on the dipstick , much easier to see when the oil is fresh. Brian

They changed the lower unit plug . It used to be on outside but that was 1997 models. But this way you check gear hub on spline good
