Was just adding oil to my reseviour and noticed an open bottle of Lower Unit Oil on the shelf. I used to run a 5hp Mariner on my jonboat and would change the lower unit oil myself each fall and have a lot left from the last change.
First question is the oil still good or should it be thrown away (recycled environmentall friendly)?
Second, do I need to check the lower unit oil on any regular frequency or just have the dealer change each fall during my tuneup/check-up?? Motor is a 2000 Merc 40.
Thanks gang - TrepMan
