Sierra Gearcase Filler 18-99524, Replaces 551-33GF and S33
The Sierra Gearcase Filler (18-99524) is a lubricant-filling accessory designed to make gearcase oil changes cleaner and easier. Its sturdy tear-drop shaped body is built to resist tipping over during use, reducing the risk of spilled gear lubricant while filling or servicing a lower unit. A built-in vent lets the filler valve be removed from the gearcase fitting without losing the lubricant inside the filler, so the remaining oil stays contained instead of draining out when the valve is disconnected.
The filler measures 22 x 9.5 x 10 inches and weighs 6.1 pounds, giving it enough capacity and stability for shop use. It is identified by UPC 808282394776 and falls within the marine oil change pump category, used by technicians and boat owners performing routine gearcase lubricant service.
