    Oil to use in 2002 250 XB

    Anyone know what kind of oil I should be using in a 2002 Merc 250 XB? Also should I be using 91 grade gasoline?

    Thanks,

    Josh

    I'd recommend Mercury or Quicksilver "Premium PLUS" for oil.

    And yes, this engine should be running 91 (MINIMUM) octane fuel.
