I bought it a used couple of years ago and it starts right up, runs at idle on the lowest setting, and never had any issues with it. Other than the prop got dinged up it runs like it's brand new. Been bringing it into the house instead of winterizing it.
Should I be doing more?
I'm an artist not a mechanic so I lack in that area. Thanks in advance!

The beauty of an outboard winterizing ez. Lower unit so water drains Would be a good time to also drain your lower unit gear oil make sure no water in there to freeze
-
Lower unit gear oil should be done every 100 hrs or yearly
-
How bout doin your engine oil and filter? Last time plugs were changed?

And fuel filter

Thank you gentlemen! I have a marina nearby. I my just drop it off.

Great little outboard. Only thing id add is seafoam it or run it out of gas conpletely. If you want to get freaky drain the bowls on the carb.

Thank you all! I'm just going to drop it off at the experts although after watching a Youtube video changing the spark plug, oil, and fuel filter looks pretty easy.
