I have two things working against me , I have a very large volume of oil (wd40) and we have some pretty significant temperature swings here ( from 40F to 90F+) So when my sub sits out in my yard the oil starts creeping up the expansion hose. </FONT></FONT><DIV><FONT size="2" style=""><FONT face="Arial, sans-serif"><BR></FONT></FONT></DIV><DIV><FONT size="2" style=""><FONT face="Arial, sans-serif">Alan, That sounds like it could be an option for me.

<DIV>Brian,</DIV><DIV>Have two oil filled motors on Gamma for vertical thrusters. I fill them put in the plug and forget about them. In the fall I drain the oil and refill in the spring. KISS they work perfectly for years now.</DIV><DIV>Hank</DIV><DIV><BR></DIV>
