Mercury or Quicksilver Premium TC-W3 2-cycle oil is recommended for your engine.

2-cycle oil is recommended. If Mercury or Quicksilver outboard oil is not available,
substitute another brand of 2-cycle outboard oil that is NMMA Certified TC-W3.
Severe engine damage may result from use of an inferior oil.
