"What weight oil should I use

"What weight oil should I use for a volvo AQ130c engine? What kind of oil should I be using for the 270 outdrive(and how much)? I've heard either 90 gear oil or 10w 40. Which is it? Also, what size spark plugs should I use and what should the gap be set to? Oh and in case I havent bombarded you with enough questions, here's one more;) Where can I buy "the perfect seal" or any other comparable sealant(for sealing bellows/intake/exhaust hoses)? Would Autozone or Pep boys carry it?

Thanks a million!"
 
"The oil grade for your engine

"The oil grade for your engine and outdrive (both carry the same grade) can be either 10W/30, 20/W40 or 10W/40. About 4 litres for the engine and 2 litres for the outdrive.

The spark plugs should be Bosch W225T 35 or equivalent. The gap should be 0.027-0.031.

You can get Loctite gasket sealant, Perfect Seal, etc at any marine parts store.

You can download the operator's manual and maintenance instructions for your engine from this link:
