i am using Quicksilver oil. Any good?
ok man thanks. I had some one tell me that quicksilver was a great oil to use in the Johnson. guess not. where can i get the Johnson oil?Its good for any Mercury engine. You need to use Johnson oil. Don't let anyone convince you of anything different.
Well everyone has there own opinions on what oil to use. A good percentage of boat owners look at me like I have two heads when I tell them to run the manufactures oil, because they were told that all TCW-3 oil is the same. By the end of the boating season they all say the same thing "My engine never ran so good" and "The black goo is no longer coming out of my exhaust".
This is interesting reading from NMMA with some PDF docs as well. I know that every group, or individual boater, has his or her prefered oil and will defend it to the hilt. The list of surpliers vses the actual refiner is interesting.

If you use any type of pennzoil in any engine you can expect poor results your better off with the white can marked motor oil.
