2008 196 Oil Drain Kit Leaking Printed From: CorrectCraftFan.com Category: Repairs and Maintenance Forum Name: Engine Repair Forum Discription: Engine problems and solutions URL: http://www.CorrectCraftFan.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34557 Printed Date: November-24-2024 at 12:05am Topic: 2008 196 Oil Drain Kit Leaking Posted By: Zedog427 Subject: 2008 196 Oil Drain Kit Leaking Date Posted: September-02-2014 at 9:51am My 2008 196's oil drain hose kit is leaking. There is very little space between the hull and the bottom of the oil pan, less than 1 inch. I fabricated a wrench to fit in there and was able to tighten the oil pan fitting but its still leaking leading me to belive its the hose assembly. I have read that the motor needs to be raised to get at this. Does anybody have any experiance with this? It looks like if the trans mounts and motor mounts are undone to raise the motor the shaft alignment would not be disturbed. Any info would be helpfull.
