Default Spring servicing Honda 90HP 4 stroke

Yea yea yea..I probably should have performed this last fall but...


I want to change the engine oil. The manual calls for SAE 10w30...
Ummm...This seems to easy and straight forward... Isn't there
an "outboard" 4-stroke oil with special detergents that costs 3 x
required???

It also recommends warming up the engine prior to draining the
old oil to assure a quick and through drain.

I assume I can get away with the usual lower unit gearcase oil.

Have new NGK's ordered up on Ebay already.

Inspect Anode.
Check prop nut.

I can't think of anything else other than a few items that
require grease (from the manual)

db~trying not to get too excited.
