Oil change after 5 hrs runtime???

[KC4YIN]

I have only put 5 hrs on my 04 Yamaha 150 4 stroke since the last engine oil change due to other family obligations. It's getting close to time to winterize here in eastern N.C. Should I change the oil anyway just to be on the safe side?

I am more concerned with your fuel system than the oil.
fresh,less than 1 week old fuel, and stabilizer or you will be doing the VST and injectors come spring time.

Thanks Rodbolt. I should have mentioned I would be doing all the rest of the necessary tasks involved in winterizing.
