Yamaha F225 Oil Change

[Ruafysh]

I just got done with changing the water pump and lower gear oil and want to change my oil.. I went to the local shops looking for manual but nobody has them in stock.. Can someone give me some pointers (best practices) on an oil change for a 2005 F225?

Thanks,
Fred

best way is with the crank vertical and the engine trim level is to suck it out the dipstick tube just like it was designed for.
when you unscrew the oil filter tilt the motor as high as you can work on it, crack the filter loose but not so loose its leaking, place a 1 gallon ziplock bag over it and the deflector below it. finnish unscrewing it collecting the waste oil in the bag.
