you'll get a premium oil if you buy Merc or OMC oil - but there is stuff
just as good out there for 1/2 the money - if you investigate.

Use any good name (ashless) NMMA rated TCW-3 oil - mixed at 50/1 or in your
auto-mix system.

Now for the best "bang for the buck", I prefer "Pennzoil Premium Synthetic
Blend", available here at Walmart for under $10 a gallon.

Yeah, we know what you use to get tipsy, Clams, but what do you use in
your outboards?

BTW, Clams is correct. Any good name brand is sufficient, although the
latest Merc Optis are supposed to use some superpremium oil formulated
for Merc. I've not bothered to find out why, since I don't own one.
