We bought a 226 last year and wanting to change the oil in it before the summer season. The manual touts a "Quick Oil Drain System" by using a "drain hose attached to the bottom of the oil pan with a small plug screwed into the loose end of the hose." and to "Remove the drain plug (T-handle) (A), located in the bilge area, and put the end of the drain hose through the drain hole."
After an hour of searching for the drain hose, I did in fact find it clipped under the engine cowling. The question I now have, is where is the "T-handle" drain plug located? I've searched inside and under our 226 for this drain port and it's not to be found anywhere unless a trailer bunker is covering it. The only drain port I see is the square plug on the transom under the platform. Can someone direct me to where the T-handle drain port is?
