Gear lube part # 92-858064Q01 is (32 fl oz) plastic bottle Quicksilver Branded, (Try Rechecking your wal-mart for Quicksilver part number 92-858064Q01). Or if you want a lot more oil, there is Part # 92-858065Q01 is 9.46 L (2.5 US gal) plastic bottle Quicksilver Branded.This SAE 90 gear lube features improved emulsifiers to help protect gears should water enter the gear housing and tackifiers to improve oil film adhesion to gears and internal components. There are extra additives to protect gears from metal to metal contact and excessive wear. Quicksilver High Performance Gear Lube is recommended for use in
outboards, Jet Pumps and Sport Jets above 75HP and for all sterndrives
hard to change gears is a clutch problem mainly so make sure that the clutch is operating properly ( makes no difference if hydraulic or cable)
Drain out the oil from the drain plug on the bottom of the box. clean the magnet on the plug. check for metal bits as this indicates bearings or gear problems. Replace the plug. About half way up the side of the box you will find another plug. Remove it. The oil you are using should be to makers specs but I prefer a 80-90 epw gear oil as the gears do a lot of work and need that extra tension in the oil to keep the teeth apart. Some makers recommend 30 grade straight mineral oil (not engine oil) but use what is recommended. You get the gear oil in 1ltre bottles ( pint or quart) and they now have an extendible plastic hose that you pull out. Put that in the plug hole and squeeze the bottle. Will probably use 2 and 1 half bottles depending on the box. Squeeze in oil until it flows back out the fill hole. Let it level out as that is the correct level of oil for the box. refit the plug tight
take out the bottom drain plug and catch the oil in a pan. replace the plug and remove the filler plug about the middle 1/2 way up the side of the box. Use appropriate oil tool or extend the plastic hose of the oil bottle and squeeze in enough oil so that it drains back out the filler hole . This is the correct level for oil in a gear box.. Replace the filler plug
on passenger side of transmission or gear box about 3\4 up is a plug remove connect a hose to bottle of gear oil and fill till if runs out replace plug and and you're done
The gear box and the engine are separated by a clutch and flywheel in the manual and a torque converter in an automatic so I am little puzzled as to how water (presumably engine coolant) got into the gear box. That aside, the only remedy is to drain the gear box and replenish with new oil.
On the other hand do you mean that water is the engine oil if so this will need to be drained and renewed. The only source of water contamination in the engine oil, other than the inadvertent adding of water via the oil filler cap, would be a cylinder head gasket failure allowing water to leak from the internal passages into the oil ways. If that is the case the gasket will need replacing.
