Installation Notes
- Ensure the sterndrive is securely supported and disconnect the vessel's battery.
- Carefully drain the gear lube from the sterndrive unit.
- Disassemble the necessary components to gain access to the old seals, noting the order and orientation of each part.
- Remove all components of the old seals.
- Thoroughly clean all mating surfaces, ensuring they are free of old gasket material, sealant, or corrosion.
- Install the new seals from the kit, applying a light coat of marine grease to the seals before installation to ensure a proper fit.
- Reassemble the sterndrive components, tightening all fasteners to the manufacturer's recommended torque specifications.
- Refill the sterndrive with new, manufacturer-recommended gear lube to the correct level.
- After reassembly and refilling, check for any signs of leaks before operating the vessel.
Troubleshooting & FAQ
What are common signs that my sterndrive seals need to be replaced?
The most common indicators of a failing seal are water intrusion into the gear lube (giving it a milky white appearance), visible oil leaking from the sterndrive unit, or a frequent need to top off the gear lube reservoir.
Will this kit fit both Single Prop (SP) and DuoProp (DP) models?
Yes, this seal kit is compatible with a wide range of Volvo Penta sterndrives, including many SP and DP models produced between 1968 and 1994. Always verify your specific model and year against the compatibility chart.
How can I tell if I have a 280 or 290 drive?
You can typically find an identification plate on the upper part of the drive. The 290 drive also features a different, more streamlined helmet and a plastic water intake hose, whereas the 280 often has a metallic one.
Is any special sealant required during installation?
While the seals themselves are the primary barrier, a high-quality marine-grade gasket sealant may be recommended for certain mating surfaces. Always consult your service manual for specific sealant requirements for your sterndrive model.
Do I need special tools to install this seal kit?
Standard mechanical tools are required for disassembly. However, specific tools like a seal puller and a seal installation driver set are highly recommended to prevent damage to the new seals and housing during installation.
