Oil ?

[Bwalker]

I can get Yamalube 2m, Evinrude XD-50 for the same price. Which would be the best to use in a yammi 70 hp.

Re: Oil ?

I have been using the Yammi stuff since new and havent had any issue what so ever. No fouled plugs limited smoke, etc so its not a performance issue. Its just the fact that is easier for me to get the XD-50 and I alos heard that the XD-50 is actually a better oil.

Re: Oil ?

The XD-50 oil is a blend, and will work just fine in your Yammie, you should be able to get it bulk at your dealer for near $15.00 a gallon if you bring your own container.

They are both good for your Yammie, use whichever will get you out on the water the most. Chief

Ben,<br /><br />To add meat tenderizer to the beaten dead horse...<br /><br />As I recall, you own/ run a resort. You probably go through alot of oil. This seems like a no brainer. Buy in bulk if you own a resort. You can usually get 30 gallon drums. Buy whichever is cheapest from the best dealer. Both oils will give you good service. I am guessing you will be able to get XD-50 at a better price in a 30 gallon drum. Bulk is a far cheaper option.

Re: Oil ?

I do own a fishing resort. This year we are using Yamalube form previous years using Esso. The problem is it is delivered to us in big batches pre mixed, so we dont have a barrel laying around.<br /> I should just be done with it and convcert the thing to pre mix.
