Installed Oil drain kit
OK, just thought I would share, I installed the Keith Echert Oil Drain kit on my 500efi this week. It was an enormous pain in the ass. very hard to reach and little if no room to work with under side in a 27 fever. if any of you take on this project I will be happy to give you some pointers on it, that may save time looking back on it now. However it will be easy to change oil and I can get all of it out now.

Hey, Will
I installed the Merc oil drain kit on the PQ when we pulled the motor to replace the coupler. We drained the oil from the dipstick and got another 1/2 qt out when the drain plug was removed. The merc kit is connected to the boats drain plug so when you remove the drain plug the hose will come the drain opening. It will be so easy to drain now.
