I was running a 50/50 mix of ATF and Lucas engine treatment.

But have switched to Mercury lower unit gear lube, why mix

I use castor oil, it runs through the recomended hole in oiler at a good rate, leaves shafts

and strut bearings in like new condition. If you need more lubrication, widen hole in oiler by

a few thou.or up a couple # drill sizes.

Good looking oiler they have. Another alternative ,for the ones that don't have a oiler is Blue Goo RC Grease. Some of the most nasty stickey stuff a$6.00 & $6.00 SH a great product. 2" dia x2"dia size I will be testing that out soon still like winter here

BUT what I did like is there prop balancer a little unique ck out
