Have a 99 400 DA with BW Velvet Drive transmissions. In the dip stick hole are mesh steel screens that taper down to an opening just small enough to fit the dip stick, so pumping oil out through this hole is not possible.
The trans has drain plugs on the side, but in my boat these are right up against the stinger. There's no way to get a pan under them. I was thinking about using a few "oil proof" bags to collect the oil. What has other done? Again, sucking out through the dip stick/oil fill hole is not an option.
Thanks
