Premium plus and synthetic blend is the same they both are synthetic blend oil.s.
858027Q01 is indeed Premium Plus (which is a Synthetic Blend).
Precisely WHAT 09 Optimax are you planning to run this oil in?

Refer to your owner's manual for oil recommendation. It will tell you that "Mercury or Quicksilver Optimax/DFI oil is recommended".
Premium plus is acceptable "if Optimax/DFI is not available".

does it hurt to go back and forth with the oil?

Mercury or Quicksilver Premium Plus (and Optimax DFI Oil) are designed to be completely compatible with each other. Thus, the recommendation that "Premium Plus may be used if Optimax/DFI Oil is not available".
