For your motor, I'd suggest Mercury's Premium Plus. I tend to prefer whatever the motor manufacturer sells. They put in the additive package they find runs best in their product. They don't sell borderline lubricants or they'd be facing lots of warranty failures they'd have to cover. As a rule, their lubricants exceed the need.

Do we have to do this AGAIN??<br /><br />Carlos, do a search on outboard oils, TCW-3, etc.<br /><br />You will find more opinions than you can digest, along with a lot of good, and some bogus, information to support any answer you want. <br /><br />Moving this to general Outboard.
