ZF285A – 2 questions

[Philip]

1. I want to remove shift and trolling solenoids to clean screens. Can I just unscrew and spray with brake cleaner? Will that be ok for the o-rings?

 

2. I removed the 24mm bolt just under the filter in an attempt to clean the suction screen. Oil came rushing out and it appeared to be more of a cap plug and I didn’t immediately see the suction screen. Help.

 

 

thanks in advance….

Drain Plug

If I recall my 220A drain plug is either 22 or 23mm, yours could be the same..

1. Copy, WD-40

 

2. No I did not drain sump, didn’t realize that was required to clean suction filter. What size wrench for #5 above to drain sump?

1.  I personally never expose rubber to brake clean but that can be debated, definitely do not use carb/choke cleaner.  WD40 is my choice.

2.  Did you drain the sump first?
