Default What 2 cycle oil to use in 115 hp v-4 Evinrude


Figgure the bottom seals stayed wet for sure. The upper is the only
question mark. Based on my extensive experience with old Mercs - it's prolly
fine. Spray some soapy water on it and spin the motor.

I'm anticipating the crank seals needing replaced from sitting so
long.


Doubtfull - In general they seem quite resiliant.

Yeah,I know they're pretty tough, but I figured that sitting still
for the past 10 yrs they'd get brittle. seems some things will wear
worse sitting dead for a decade then they would running the whole
time.
