For the boat and anything else I store seasonally, if it's getting an oil change, I do it at the end of the season before storage. Makes more sense to put it away with clean oil than to let dirty oil sit in there just to change it as soon as it comes out of storage. Plus, it's one step closer to equipment coming out of storage ready to use.So if you were going to change annaually, would you change when you haul out and let it sit with the fresh oil, or let it sit with the stale oil, and change it before you launch in the spring ?
Also, if oil expires, does that mean when I stock up on oil and store it in my garage it has a shelf life ?
