I just did the 20 hour service on my 2023 Yamaha 150. I got the 20 hour kit from partsvu for $160. Perfect way to go. Has everything required, plus a hand pump for the lower gear case oil. This service is around $1k at the dealer and a 3 hour round trip.

What type of wrench were you using?

What type of wrench were you using?

One of the kind that self-tightens as you put force on it. Not enough space there for a strap type. Don’t have a cap type.

It was on there tight so the wrench dug in hard.

My Merc 30 is like that. Pain to get off. I started using a slightly longer filter which makes life much better getting it off.

Doing it right! Ordering the Yamalube kit is easy and certainly ensures your engine warranty is protected. Your Robalo is the same hull color as mine (Cayman 226).

I use my giant channel lock pliers on easy to get at filters. Those band type filter wrenches do tend to crush the filter first before you get proper leverage.
