In the spring I take her out, put her back on the boat and do the lower unit lube, new plugs and pull the prop and clean up all those fitting as and grease it all and she goes first pull every spring. If the motor isn't that heavy one or two guys can carry it in and you can build a stand in the basement with 2 by's and 3/4 plywood to hang her on. I have my Merc 5hp and old Woolner 25hp Johnson on stands as well down there.

its a 25hp suzuki, I may just do that its only 4 bolts
