OIL REQUIREMENTS
Engine Lubricant
Evinrude/Johnson XD30 outboard oil
is
recom-
mended for use
in
these outboards.
Evinrude/Johnson brand oils are formulated
to
give best engine performance while controlling
piston
and
combustion chamber deposits, provid-
ing
superior lubrication, and ensuring maximum
spark
plug life.
If
XD30
oil
is
not available, you must use
an
oil
that meets NMMA TC-W3RL certification.
IMPORTANT: Failure
to
follow this recommen-
dation
could void the outboard warranty if a lubri-
cation-related failure occurs.
These models require
50:1
(2% oil) fuel/oil ratio
during
normal operation and a
25:1
(4% oil)
fuel/oil ratio during break-in. Refer to Break-In (10
Hours)
on
p.
52.
