I would get 1 quart and make sure you get the type of oil for an electric shift lower unit. It is different than the manual shift type.

It takes 15 oz's. Be sure to use OMC Premium Blend or type C lube. Don't forget to replace the drain plug washers.

Good, so one quart will do ya for two changes. Yes, like boobie says, get the Type C.
