    Bulk Opti oil in San Antonio area?

    Well, I've been here 1/2 a year now, and I've finally used up the last of my Optimax oil. I've been buying bulk oil while living in VA, and knew of a couple of places to buy it. Now... I'm clueless.

    Anyone know where I can buy bulk Optimax oil in San Antonio? I've got a couple of 5 gallon containers, a few of the 2.5 gallon containers, and a gallon jug.

    All the best,
    Glenn

    Here are the Mercury service centers in the SAT area. You might just call around. Don't know which ones to tell you to stter clear of other than Travis Boating Center if they are even still in business. Tracker Marine finally took them all over and their name has changed here in Abilene to Tracker Boating Center. The one listed on the map as Tracker, I assume, is BPS.

    Good Luck!

    Travis Boating Center is the only Merc dealer that I know of. BPS sells boats with Mercs, but I don't know if they are actually a full service dealer.

    Looks like I might actually start running Amsoil in my engine. I run it in everything else... might as well try it out in the Optimax and hope for the best.

    I don't have an Opti, but I know the DFIs are picky about the oil you run in them. I'd see if I could find some others that were running it in theirs with success first. If it were me I'd run Bombardier XD100 before I'd try something that I don't know would be OK for DFI motors. Just my 2¢.
