Think I got answer to earlier question on missing screw. Thanks! Now, what gear oil do I need? Where could I obtain it?

I thought I had said what oil in previous reply.

It requires a high viscosity ( as opposed to the type C for electric shifts) outboard engine gear oil . Cannot suggest where you obtain it. Walmart ? or order from MarineEngine. Any boating suppliers will have something suitable. Same place as you buy the oil for the fuel mix.

Thanks, vics. I wanted to be sure that it was the high viscosity which was required.
