What's the best device to assist in changing the gear oil?

I would suggest using an old milk jug or if that seems too
complicated, just park the engine over a street drain and let it flow
into that.

Much less complicated than using an old milk container.

Some may think your opinion on this matter somewhat moronic.

Doh! Right over your head John. You do realize that Les Avis is Tom
don't you?

Maybe if brain-dead Herring would look at his engine, he'd realize that
gravity will drain out the oil and if attaches the right sized plastic
hose, it'll drain right into a container that can be taken to a place
that accepts oil for disposal.

Any competent boat salesman would have introduced a new customer to
someone in the shop who would have demonstrated the various
owner-maintenance features. But I guess if you buy a new engine off
ebay...


Oh oh! Now he'll be crying to the moderator of another group about
posters being mean to him.


My salesman spent about 45 minutes with me going over the details of the
engine, and this wasn't the first modern Yamaha four stroke outboard I
bought there. Considering how expensive these engines are, you'd think
that the owner of a new one would want to pick up a bit of knowledge
before heading down the road.

I always go through the owners manual front to back a couple of times.

For our Johnny..

Cry baby cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better.

The king of Marigold was in the kitchen
Cooking breakfast for the queen
The queen was in the parlour
Playing piano for the children of the king.

Cry baby cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry baby cry.

The king was in the garden
Picking flowers for a friend who came to play
The queen was in the playroom
Painting pictures for the childrens holiday.

Cry baby cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry baby cry.

The duchess of Kircaldy always smiling
And arriving late for tea
The duke was having problems
With a message at the local bird and bee.

Cry baby cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry baby cry.

At twelve o'clock a meeting round the table
For a seance in the dark
With voices out of nowhere
Put on specially by the children for a lark.

Cry baby cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry baby cry cry cry cry baby
Make your mother sigh.

She's old enough to know better
Cry baby cry
cry cry cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry baby cry.

Can you take me back where I came from?
Can you take me back?
Can you take me back where I came from?
Rowboat can you take me back?
Can you take me back?
Oooh, can you take me where I came from?
Can you take me back?

You are not serious are you? Besides contaminating everything you can end
up in jail depending on where you live.

It's OK, I think, in France. That would be my guess.

That is true. We French are much less constipated over this silly
affaire de réchauffement global than you silly, ignorant smelly âne
sourd-muet Americans.

It is amazing to us French that you are such le porc a dirigé des
