2017 Supra SA Fluids

[eder10986]

Prepping to do an oil change and check all other fluids and top off accordingly (except coolant [emoji23]).

I have the raptor 400 and it looks like indmar 5w30 is best. How much does the engine take? Anyone else recommend better oil?

I’m certain I have a cartridge filter which would be 501022S part from indmar. Right?

Lastly, what about transmission and such. That’s where I’m lost. I want to make 100% sure I top off with correct fluids. Thanks!

Castrol 03084C Edge 5W-30 Advanced Full Synthetic Motor Oil, 5 Quart https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ICSWGJ0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_4TV1HKMC57DCRJ66CRMM?_ encoding=UTF8&psc=1

Because it’s a full synthetic and cheaper than indmar (rebranded) semi synthetic.

I also prefer the WIX xp filter

For the V drive, most run Mobil Delvac 1 sae 50 synthetic. Although you don’t need a gallon, Indmar v drive is synthetic and not too expensive

Mobil Delvac Syn Transmission 50, 1 gal https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XD2WVC7/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_C4W0JYQT1Q9X7665QPNH

Transmission run any dexron 3 synthetic. Indmar atf is synthetic and not terribly overpriced for the amount you need.

When using a fluid extractor, do you prefer to extract through dipstick or oil drain hose through transom?

Mods please move To service if possible. Thanks!

Drain hose because it’s easy, you get all the oil and that is what the hose is for. Plus, it’s way faster than dipstick hose and so many get dipstick extractor stuck in the dipstick tube.

Couple options on where to route extractor/drain hose.

1) push ballast bag aside and put towel down in the rear starboard storage bay.

2) if you have the surf locker engine cover off, you can route drain hose out the surf locker and put the extractor on the ground.

Make sure the engine oil is warmed up.

You can use a 1/4 inch air hose fitting to connect your extractor to the factory drain hose.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210909/fe69db952721b24f3dc611b399152e9a.jpg

This may be a ridiculous question, do you need to use an extractor when using the drain hose. Is it connected to the bottom of the pan?

You don’t need an extractor but it helps immensely.

If the oil is cold and you open the drain hose, it won’t come out.

If the oil is warm/hot, it wil slowly drain out but will take a long time.

Warm oil and extractor and it takes 1-3 minutes to fully drain. There is 8 qts.

Yes, the hose is attached to the drain plug on the oil pan.

When I first bought a wake boat, I did not have an extractor. It was easy to drain if you hooked up the hose right after use when the motor was good and hot. If the motor is cold, it’s a no-go.

I live 5 mins to the boat ramp, so I would use the boat that day, pull in the driveway that night, and hook up the drain hose.

Most of the oil was drained in 15-30 mins. It’s slow compared to the extractor. I would leave it overnight, come out the next am, finish the filter and refill, and back on the lake.

After my first year I was bored one fall day so I made a 12v extractor from Northern Tool $30-35 Pump mounted on bucket. Works well, pretty simple. Otherwise, I would have bought one to get it all done at one time.
