Hello, i have a older I think 72 mercury 65hp thunderbolt Kiekhaefer before winter I had drained the oil for storage, I am wonderring what is the best way to refill the lower end? I pulled the vent and Flush plugs and tried to squeeze the oil tube, It did not seem that very much oil would go in, eventually the oil started to come out the other side vents? any help? also is the something wrong if it came out the vents? how much oil should be in the lower end/ etc????? Help I want to go fishing?

You need to use squese tubes or a pump and fill it from the drain plug to the vent plug
