I guess it would be a good idea to do lower end oil too. Appreciate the help!

In my experience most of the issues encountered in spring re-commission are related to fuel gone bad.. so you are wise to be concerned..Gerry and others as usual give great advice.. I would also suggest if possible always running non-ethanol fuel in it.. especially before storage..but if its handy, i would burn it year round.. in my case I have to drive several miles out of my way to get it, but I find it well worth it down the road.. and not just in my outboard, but all the yard equipment as well.. when it comes to gas sitting around a while, ethenol is the devil
