Don't use this one for your pump:

Hy-Per Lube High Performance Oil Supplement, 946 mL

That's the one I'm using, it's designed for submerged gear boxes. The color is bluish-green and looks like the BRP pump oil, to me.

I think the key here is to change it when contamination occurs, based on the color of my merc HP gear lube this time I think I should change it twice/season.

Does the little hand pump you mentioned has a nozzle that screw into the fill port? or just pour the oil in

It's pour in, to allow air to escape. You can use a small funnel but it takes a long time. I use a hand pump oiler can with flexible spout, it fits in my palm and holds just enough oil to fill the bearing cavity. It has a pointed tip on the spout so I can hold it in the fill hole and pump the lever until the oil reaches the top.

Like this one on the right, trigger type with flexible spout:

It's like this one, but mine has a flexible spou, might be able to use this one as well:

I can't seem to get the CT product searcher working, maybe I have it blocked somehow......

Thanks I think I know what I should get now. Your JPG attachment remind me about my mom's old sewing machine :-D

Here's another item to consider, you won't need it anytime soon but if you have a grease gun this is one of my favorite attachments:

can I just use a syringe? how any ml of oil normally it takes?

Sure you can! I guess it probably takes ~150cc for filling completely.

Here is another procedure for changing the oil:

That is 15 loads. I will go to CT in the afternoon to pick up the marine bearing oil and take a look for a tool for it.

I use it on about everything I anticipate will need periodic disassembly, otherwise lock-tite blue is fine. I've never had my boat pop apart when hitting a wake, nor have I ever had a bolt or screw back out or corrode and seize.

Don't forget, you need to buy a grease gun if you don't have one. You should grease the PTO spline, it should be waterproof grease if you want to use it in your trailer wheel bearings as well.

Is it same as the silicon gun?

Nope! You'll want one with a flexible hose:

If the one you are using is better, I will use yours. Can you give me a link?

Thanks.

If the manual calls for lock-tite, use the lock-tite.

thanks, that is a nice website. But I doubt they will ship to Canada.

Now I am work at the jet pump oil. Just noticed some cracks on the hull. Is it going to be a safety issue? I hope it is only the surface.

There are a few more on other areas.

It looks like this nozzle can adjust the bow rise by reversing the nut.
