1973 Evinrude 65 electric shift oil?

[ErikF]

Hello,

I just finished replacing the water pump impeller on my motor and want to change the lower unit oil at the same time.

I have a few quarts of Pennzoil Marine Gear Lube SAE80W-90 but I believe from memory that this oil is only good for mechanical shift models? What oil do I need to be using in the electric shift motor?

Thanks,

Erik

if you have a 1973, you do not have electric shift, you have hydro-mechanical shift.
