Just bought my first boat...its a 79 renken with a 120 merc, Inboard outboard...Runs great but the outdrive tim will not raise...The guy told me this happens a lot and to just add some 30 weight oil every season...My question is, shouldn't I be using hydrolic fluid? Also, where is the resevoir?
Thanks
