Change the drive oil now.

I assume you mean the water pump in the OMC King Cobra drive. Very easy to change out the impellor. Much-much easier to change than the seawater pump on a Bravo. Just don't ask how I arrived at that conclusion just this week :splat:

Hey RedDog, I'm getting ready to splash Nervous Energy soon. Do I need to change my drive oil now or should it be good until the end of the summer? If so, why do you need to change it so often? Nervous Energy is running a KC drive too. :confused:
