I posted this on the boat page my mistake think it sould be here. Anyway, I've been trying to get the motor preped to go and the guy at the marina keep putting me off. I have a 1992 150 hp Force. Head end was rebuilt two years ago and the lower unit last year. I bought the boat end of last season and had it winterized. I want to start it. I got the manual and I know I have to lube the lower unit and I will change the plugs. Couple of questions, how much water should be flowing through the unit with the hose on and how long can I run it like that. What else should I do. Should I put some dry gas in there. The book is pretty clear on where to lubricate etc. I'm a pretty good auto mechanic rebuilt a couple engines etc. But I never messsed with an Outboard. What should I be looking for. The benefit of your mistakes and education (may be the samething) would be very much appreciated. Thanks
