WHAT OIL DO YOU ALL REC.FOR THIS MOTOR
WHAT OIL DO YOU ALL REC.FOR THIS MOTOR
Let me be the first to announce that Evinrude's XD-100 oil is the very best you can use and your motor will love you for it.
Of course it's expensive so second best is XD-50
After that would be any outboard motor manufacturer's brand of oil
and if you are really cheap, then buy the least expensive TC-W3 certified oil that you can find.

Being a carb motor. unless ya got deep pockets, I would run the XD-50 and decarb once a year or every 100 hours. Otherwise run the 100 and never have to decarb again. JMHO
I run XD100 in my 150 FastStrike....................it is pricey, but the best you can get for the engine. The engine pretty much sips it also..................lot of times the oil consumption is due to how heavy the right foot is also....................RR
