    Can’t find any anodes.

    I have a 1979 OMC 2.5 liter, 990243 on a 400 stern drive 981871( with 15 spline prop shaft). Are there any anodes on this outdrive that are hidden, I can’t find any. I only run in fresh water but I noticed a bit of corrosion on the transducer screws. Thanks for your time.

    Good afternoon, I have a 1979 120 hp OMC with the 400 hydro- mechanical outdrive. I have looked thru other threads and can’t find that combo to find out what gear lube to use. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance, Buzz. Still trying to get a service Manual.
