I just purchased my first boat, a 1996 G3 with a 1998 Mercury 40hp. Previous owner said he hasn't used the boat in about 4 years, but he has lent it to friends a few times in those 4 years. Motor runs fine and starts easily, but I was wondering what maintenance I need to do. I was thinking change the spark plugs and foot oil, anything else I should do? I looked at the motor and it has NGK spark plugs, are those stock from Mercury or have they been changed? What brand plugs do yall recommend? Also, if somebody has a link to an online service manual with all the part #s and oils to use in this motor that would be great. Thanks!
