Just run it dry and let the sparks fly!
dowhat, alot of the members here use the Redline oil, as I do. If you are using the standard Merc stuff you will really notice a difference in shifting in and out of gear if you are talking about drive oil. It is alot smoother.
Here is a place to by from. www.myoilshop.com
I don't know how the price compares, but I paid $ 28.39 for 3 quarts. That includes shipping. If you search the web you may be able to get it cheaper.
I know that AMSOIL is supposed to be very good oil also, and alot of people use mobile1 because Walmart carries it and it is easy to get. The peolpe who have boats on warranty use the Merc stuf for obvious reasons. Good luck!

Good Stuff - About $8 per quart.
Do an oil analysis kit for about $20.
You may find that 25 hours is excessive. I leave mine in for a season or 50-75 hours.
I change the oil in my truck about once a year. (5000 miles per year)
Changing more often will never hurt - but you may be wasting $$$.
Most dealers will take 10% off if you order a case.

rv, theres a shop in your neck of the wood over in Lake Zurich called TAD motorsports. I dont have the number on me but 411 can help you out i'm sure...Its a cool place too! They build ralley cars from scratch there!!! ever see a 4wd turbo ricer with 400hp and running 6lbs of boost at idle!!! 
Thats about the only ricer that i would ever even think about wanting to drive!!!
They are off rt22 west or Quentin rd a little......you turn north right at the school football field that on the south side of rt22 at the intersection there.

No, I don't have it in my drives. I already had enough Merc fluid to change 2.5 out of the three drives this year. I will change next fall if I keep hearing good things. (I have not heard any bad things)
