What do most of you do before the season to make sure your motor is good to go other than changing the lower unit fluid? I hooked up the flusher and thanks to gas stabilizer, it fired right up.

Does anyone else have a nervous feeling about the fact that on a Mercury XRI, the water dosen't come out of the (for lack of a better term) "pee hole" until the thermostat opens??

charge batteries   change lowere unit  change impeller   if not changed in last two seasons    check trailer tire pressure   put plug in and go fishing
