I just did mine this weekend. I was told by my marina to fill from the lower unit screw hole instead of topping off the gear lube monitor. Filling from the bottom purges air from the system. I was told if I top it off I could create an air void that would deprive oil from the top of the drive. I have never tried topping it off before so I don't have personal knowledge that it would cause such a problem so I figured better safe than sorry.2013 SS 188 i/o 4.3 Mercruiser

For some reason I assumed wrong and thought you had an outboard. Either way, look in this chart.

awesome< thank you. That helps. How about the gear lube monitor inside the engine compartment, if it reads low can i just add lube oil into that rectangle gear lube monitor or do I have to fill it from the lower unit screw hole?
