Install a gearcase pressure tester and pressurize
to 16 to 18 PSI for 5 to 10 minutes. If the shift
actuator does not hold pressure, repair any leaks.
After confirming there are no leaks, remove the
gearcase pressure tester.
Make sure the gasket is installed on the plug
and the plug is tightened securely. Water
intrusion into the shift actuator cavity will
damage the shift actuator.
