Sterndrive Oil Mercruiser 888

[mrboat]

I would like to replace the oil in my drive unit before I take the boat on the lake again. i looked the fluid type in my service manual, it says "Quicksilver C-92-68617"

Is this just like a 75W-90 Gear Lube? or something special. . .?

i work at an automotive shop and have many types of gear oil, so if i can, i will use a compatable fluid. i guess if its something special and fancy i will have to buy it online.

Thanks!

Just a good grade of dino oil .80-85-90 Hypoid, anti-foaming GL-5
Latest is synthetic, but I can`t find any difference.
