Need a special tool for duoprop removal, i'm not sure which one ?

[chiefshocker]

I was trying to change the oil on this new boat, larson 270, volvo penta. I'm new to all this but see i need a specialty tool to pull the 2nd prop. I found two types, but not sure what class/type prop i have to match up to the tool.

Pic of my prop attached if anyone can id the correct tool that would be super.

I believe it is this one, I have an DP-SM and it fits it.

You say new? New to you or a 2012-13-14? What drive is on it?

If it's the DPS-A, you need this tool.It works on the D and F series props

It's this one. If you want to put yourself at ease before ordering check the engraving on the prop for F or D followed by a number. I bet you will. Also, I would order new o rings for the dipstick and filling/exit port.

I bought one and also made one with a socket on the top so I can use my torque wrench.

Make sure you also buy the adapter that makes it easier to pump the gear oil back into you drive:

This is mine it has been working for 14 years and cost $5 approx. Socket is same size as the rear prop nut, makes sense.

I like the DIY ones, not much to them, might be quicker to just make one. Thanks again.
