Notes:
Blown seals: The SD20 is susceptible to blowing the seals if the oil is filled too high. Many have added a vent line to the top of the filler cap. Without the vent, only fill the saildrive oil to the bottom of the dipstick

Sheared tapper pin repair: External Link

Oil specifications: 80W90W gear oil (API GL-4 or GL-5)
Oil capacity: 700ml
Oil change interval: Every 250 hours of operation or annually (whichever comes first)

Procedure to change oil in the water:

  1. Using a pump with a small tube remove as much oil as possible
  2. Refill oil to full capacity (bottom of dipstick)
  3. Run engine 5 minutes
  4. Using a pump with a small tube remove as much oil as possible
  5. Refill oil to full capacity (bottom of dipstick)
(This will replace over 75% of the oil)

Outer diaphragm and secondary inner diaphragm
Replacement Guidelines: Inspect every 2 year and replace every 5 years
Common Practice: Monitor condition and test the water penetration sensor
Recommendations: Pacwest in San Diego does not recommend changing the diaphragms unless there is visible damage or water has penetrated the outer diaphragm. These diaphragm almost never fail. I have read this from other sources who make the same recommendation.

Propeller Shaft Grooves
It is an issue that they Gori propellers installed on a SD20 saildrive will form grooves over time which will result in sea water penetration. Periodic repositioning of the seals using shims allow longer life from the propeller shafts.

Grooves worn into the propeller shafts
