Description
OEM Vent Screw Plug O-Ring 0336982 is a replacement sealing O-ring used on select OMC, Johnson and Evinrude outboard gearcases, including the SST45 Racing Gearcase.
This small but important seal installs at the gearcase vent screw plug and helps maintain a proper seal between the screw and the lower unit housing. A worn, flattened, cracked, or damaged O-ring can allow gear lubricant to leak out or permit water to enter the gearcase.
Replacing the vent screw O-ring during routine lower unit service is an inexpensive way to help protect internal gearcase components and maintain proper lubrication.

Recommended Service
Inspect the vent and drain screw seals whenever servicing or changing gearcase lubricant. If an O-ring appears flattened, brittle, cracked, cut, or damaged, replacement is recommended before reinstalling the screw.
Because OMC, Johnson and Evinrude used different gearcase configurations across various engines and model years, verify your engine model and original part number before ordering.
