As a contributing member, you have access to the manuals. Assuming you have an Alpha 1 Gen II sterndrive, This manual will explain how to check and change your oil. Click Here and select the second PDF file. When you open it, it should be labeled "Section 1A - General Information", now go to page 1B-8 and begin reading. Changing oil in on 1B-12. Take a little time and you'll find all the reference material for doing your own maintenance. Good luck, WetWilly |

I know to fill it till it comes out on the vent hole, but to be properly prepared, how much oil will an alpha one hold??

However... I sent them an email to ask if I could just stop in and pick up what I wanted, and they haven't replied. They also don't appear to have a phone number. Odd for a company that claims to be a service company. I'm not impressed. Jim |

The stuff they sell may be good, but their business practices don't give me a warm, fuzzy feeling. Jim |
