Oil is a major factor affecting
performance and service life. Use
4-stroke detergent oil.

Check the gear case oil level with the
engine stopped and the outboard
motor in the vertical position.

Remove the oil level screw and see
whether oil flows from the oil level
hole.

If oil flows from the oil level hole,
the oil level is OK. Reinstall the
screw and tighten it securely.
