    2005 Mercury 150XL Opti Saltwater - Oil Question

    Serial # 1B055459

    Recently purchased a 2005 Kenner Vision 2102 which has a Mercury 150XL Opti Saltwater series motor. Previous owner ran quicksilver premium 2 stoke oil in red bottle. Reading online it appears quicksilver DFI oil is recommended. I wanted feedback on changing over to DFI and if I should be worrried about the premium 2 stoke oil damaging the motor? Also any issues I should be aware of when switching to DFI when it comes to the mixing of the two oils?

    Thanks
    David
