What oil are you running? I keep hearing that I should use only Merc. Synthetic which is hard to get and expensive as heck. I know I should use 25w40, but the previous owner of my boat said he just used Mobil 1. I can pick up Quicksilver 25w40 at local store which has the same FC-W rating as the Merc stuff, but not in synthetic. Just want to see what everyone here uses?

Anything you do is always "ok" :roll:

If you are looking for a "source", common sense should lead you to here

Unless you have positive info to share maybe you shouldn't answer every post with nothing?

I'm using the 25W40 synth blend that Merc makes. But, I wouldn't be afraid to move down the "approved list" on the website and in the manual if cost were a consideration. My choice is more of a "here is Merc's most highly recommended oil, so I'll blindly follow their recommendation" than anything else.

Maybe, maybe not. Nothing negative about the links I posted. Both offer good recommendations and some choices on what you can use.

Maybe you should.................
