Another boat question

[71GSSDemon]

Anyone know if you can buy a 90* drain plug for a boat motor? Or something similar to this? That eliminates the need to totally remove the drain plug?

Thanks

Depends on age of engine. Newer models just unscrew a few turns and it starts flowing. I use a hose connected to the nipple side so it goes into a bucket nicely.

Thanks, yeah mines just a drain "plug", no nipple etc. I was hoping for something that doesn't dribble all over the side of it. 2006 Merc.

Ok. I was just in the parts catalog but didn't see what I was looking for. Can look more tomorrow

I use one of these Steve.....They work with compressed air.

The pump that @CFD244 posted above or something like it should work well. I don't see a newer style drain that would retrofit, unless something in the aftermarket.
