I opened up the drain plugs on my 40hp Mercury Thursday day and let it drain. The boat is in my garage but still, it was mighty cold here in Wisconsin.

It filled it today, but it was odd. It didn't take the 14oz or so which is the capacity.
Could it be that it didn't fully drain because of the cold ?

I filled from the bottom and kept pumping until lube started coming out of the top.

Just one of those hhhmm moments.

Any ideas?
