Re: Finding Pennzoil

I've been to our walmart here and called every walmart in the state of Utah and none of them carry the stuff anymore.

Re: Finding Pennzoil

I'm in NJ and it's gone from the Walmart stores here too, it seems that anything not made or sold through Attwood is gone in the marine department.

Penzoil oils also seem to have disappeared from all the other sources here too, both automotive and marine. It's either Quaker state, or Walmart brand around here. I did the search online by zip code and nothing shows locally, not even close.

Forget ordering it online, oil is expensive enough without adding shipping to the cost or paying some inflated rate.

Most marinas or dealers sell bulk oil, many have various types to choose from.
The way I see it, if Penzoil isn't available here, it's their problem not mine. For what ever reason it's not carried by any of the retailers. I'll just use whatever I can get.

Bought 6 gallons of Premium Plus on-line for $13.10 a gallon. Delivery was $2.78 per gallon so I paid $15.88 a gallon delivered to the house.

Later found a local supplier for $15.83 plus tax = $16.77.

Seems I saved almost $1 a gallon even with the shipping cost.

Just ordered 6 gallons of Evinrude XD50 for $22.21 a gallon plus $2.78 per gallon delivery charge. The best price locally was $29.99 a gallon

Re: Finding Pennzoil

The best I've seen is $16.72 per gallon for a 6 gallon case with shipping. Maybe I pay more in shipping due to location here?
I can buy equivalent oil far cheaper out of the bulk container at the local marina and I don't have to buy 3 or 6 gallons at a time to get that price.

In my first post, I had assumed that the OP was referring to 2 stroke oil, but I guess he could also mean 4 stroke oil.

The OP had asked about Pennzoil synthetic blend, and it seems that its only available now online in this area for some reason. It was last seen around here in 2.5 gallon jugs for about $27 each, for regular motor oil at Walmart, They haven't had the two stroke oil for over a year now. They just built a new Walmart here, a huge, superstore but the boating and fishing sections are minimal for some reason. The old, smaller store about 12 miles away has all sorts of Marine items to choose from but the common brands are all gone. They seem to be only keeping their own brand and one or two others. No more full selections.

Re: Finding Pennzoil

The last time I bought a gallon at W/M I had to ask for it, they had a fresh case in the back room and just never bothered to restock the shelves with it.

Thanks for the replys. One good thing about it is that now I have absolutely no reason to step foot in our Walmart again.

Re: Finding Pennzoil

I had the same experience at Walmart today. i've been buying BRP XD-30 in bulk for awhile, but it is getting a bit pricey, so I decided to see what Pennzoil semi-syn might be selling for. I bought the stuff in the 2-1/2 gallon jugs for years at Wally World, but no luck today - none on the shelf and the clerk said that they hadn't been selling it for "some time!"

I wonder what is up with that!

Re: Finding Pennzoil

I stopped by Academy Sports tonight to see if they are selling Pennzoil outboard oil - they are. The semi synthetic is $17.99/gallon and the full synthetic is $29.99/gallon. I'm paying $18.00/gallon for BRP XD-30 in bulk, so I think I'll keep getting it there. It nice to know, however, that I have a backup for oil, if I need it after the dealer's normal business hours.

Is BRP XD-30 a synthetic?

Re: Finding Pennzoil

DO you have a West Marine store in your area?
They carry some Pennzoil products.
