Total tripe. Straight from the yamaha pwc manual "if yamalube is not
available, any twc3 oil may be used.". You're right, nothing to debate,
you're just plain wrong. Hell, we were running ashless oil in our dirt
bikes 30 years ago. And there's nothing different about the manufacturer
brand oil except the price, you pay through the nose for it.

James,

Please accept my sincere apologies for not following what is now normal
decorum in this NG. I do my best to participate when I think I can add
meaningful insight to those who seek it, and I bow out when it's clear
people want to draw me into something else.

As an aside, BRP is quite specific in their Sea-Doo manuals about TCW-3
oils NOT be used as alternatives, but since I am not a PWC dealer I
shall step aside to let you have the floor on this matter if you wish.

A quick thank you is in order as well. I took a quick trip down memory
lane by googling my name in reference to this Newsgroup and found some
stuff from the 90's.
