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

My salesman spent about 45 minutes with me going over the details of the

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.
