So what type of lube/oil do I get to refill it, and does it have to be from a specialized store?

Also what gap should my spark plugs be at?

I have tried to find a manual but they all have to be bought.

Pretty specialized, usually. You won't find it at the gas station. From an Evinrude dealer, it is "Premium Blend Gearcase oil", which replaces OMC type C. Anywhere else, including iboats, it is still "Type C Gearcase oil"

Plugs are .030"

Thanks, and how much does it take to fill the lower unit?
