New boater here...<br /><br />I know engines need to be greased. I have a 1976 Mercury 1150 115hp. What needs to be greased on this engine? I know the steering "rod" thingy needs to be. But what else?? Any help is appreciated. Thanks!!

Best to get a service manual and learn all the ins and outs for your motor. Manuals can be purchased by clicking the link at the bottom of the page. You will want one when you change impellers or winterize or make adjustments.
