S130 sail drive drain plug

[Irmascherkid]

Hello to all, ok I’m going to throw this out there in the hope that someone will have the answer lol.
At present my boat is still in the water and thinking about getting her lifted for a quick clean and straight back in, now i was thinking of changing the oil in the sail drive but cant find any info regarding the size of the washer that goes into the drain plug? Any information is greatly appreciated.

You can change it by pumping out from inside. The external drain plug is a slot head and often a pig to remove. If you are doing it this way get a new plug and seal kit. You might also consider replacing the seals in the lower unit as removing the housing to do this job automatically drains the oil!

Hi symphony2, yes i was going to change all the seals when I pulled her out at the end of this year but considering I’m wanting to pull her out for a quick clean then I thought about changing the oil without having the time constraints that may arise, hence the question regarding the size of the washer on the drain plug.

If the 130S saildrive is the later one with the split anode, the VP plug and seal codes are 3854539 and 3855081 respectively. I think now they are also available together as a kit under another part number. You can find schematics etc on the website of Marine Parts Express.
