My 1984 Cat.27 is equipped with the Universal M-18 and HBW-50 Hurth Transmission. The transmission drain plug is stripped. I was told I could remove the old plug, and replace it with a self tapping drain plug. Or, I could remove the transmission from the boat and have it repaired. I'm leaning toward removal of the transmission, and repair as a long term solution. Does anyone have first hand experience with removing a hurth transmission?
