Gear lube is gear lube. Synthetic is better than dyno by far. Lubrimatic
will serve you just as well as Quicksilver and you can keep a couple of

Hey, check this out. Here is the advertisement for Merc's expensive
dealer sold lubricants...

Now check out the advertisement for the Quicksilver lubes sold at Wal-
Mart.

Its word for word the same brochure!!! Now I'm confused as to how they
are marketing the brands. If the Merc is more expensive you'd think
they would *try* to convince people it was better but it doesn't
appear that way at all. The only thing I can tell is that they might
require you to use the Merc lubes while you are still under warranty.
