Another ETEC Oil Help

[jhuxgti]

Sorry if this is in another thread.
I recently bought a 2006 Stratos with a 225 ETEC. When I got the boat home (late Friday night) I had about 1/4 tank of oil. I had a TX the next morning and being the person I am I could not sleep that night knowing I only had 1/4 tank of oil in the tank. So I researched the proper oil on the net to find the recommended oil is XD30, 50 or 100. I had XD30 laying around from my short boat (150 Johnson Faststrike). So I poured a little less than 1/2 gallon of the XD30 into the tank. Fished the TX. Went to the stealership the next week to find that the ETEC is programmed to run a specific type (good info to know after pouring the 30 in). They checked the setting. Sure enough, the setting was for XD100 (good news) So I bought a gallon of XD100. I asked if I would be ok mixing the oil or should I drain it. They told me to mix it... it is not worth draining the oil. Any opinions????

You are OK you should have the map upgraded though, if you have warranty left buy the guys out back a large pizza and make them happy. Free food works great for the guys in the back as does a 6 pack for the dude that works your motor .

So I should change the mapping to 30 or 50? Then change it back to 100?

The latest Map for an HO sets it to 100, you can use any oil you wish. I would run XD-50 or 100.
