Default What oil do you recommend?
Hi, I saw that the reservoir for the Drive Oil was on the Fill mark today. Can someone please recommend what oil to add. I have Mercruiser 3.0 Inbd/Outbrd engine.

Also, what Engine oil would you recommend for the Mercruiser 3.0 Alpha 1?

Thanks,

Dean

I use Mercruiser/Quicksilvers 25W-40 for the engine and Mercruiser high performance gear lube for the drive.
