[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 457441, member: 3278"] [size=5]The OMC ones are reusable several times so your cost is actually quite low. Yamaha, according to their monthly dealer publication, states that the lower unit vent and drain screw seals are a one-time usage item! I will agree that if you have the "red" Yamaha seal on the vent and drain screw that you definitely need to change it out as the publication states that they may not retain proper torque due to the seal. We have seen this several times during the routine servicing of the Yamaha product. [/size] [/QUOTE]
