4 stroke oil change tip.

There shouldnt be oil in the pistons though .... If it is, your motor is
toast
Why is that? The pistons are open on the bottom, which is really the side in an
outboard. Oil splashes around everywhere and it can drain down in these piston
wells if the engine is trimmed down when you turn it off.
BTW I didn't make this up, Mercury says it in a service bulletin according to
my dealer.
hehe sorry I got this wrong.. waspicturing oil on top of the pistons
in this case you are right and some movement of the motor will also help
