Startron.

Also, a good friend and auto mechanic suggested removing the plugs on the
outboard, spraying the cylinders with WD40, spinning the engine a couple
times, and then putting the plugs back in.

No WD40 - it's a solvent. For four strokes, fog the engine with
fogging oil.

Change the gear oil.

Or better yet, take it to your mechanic and have him/her do it.

Couple of hundred bucks and you don't have to worry about it.
