"Hello,
could somebody tell me whats the situation regarding using non-approved oil in the these engines. My engine was set up by the dealer and subsequently used a brand of oil called
' GFN - SUPER OUTBOARD MOTOR OIL, NMMA TC-W3 2 TEMPI' TWO STROKE SUPER OUTBOARD MOTOR OIL.
The rest of the writing is in italian on the container as far as i can see...means nothing to me.
During its short lifetime of 150 hours the engine seized twice (discussed at length on here). I've yet to get a written report from Tohatsu but have had a conversation on the phone with a rep regarding the engine today and they're looking into this issue.
The recommended oils as far as I know are as follows
Tohatsu Premium Oil
Nissan Marine Premium Oil
Pennzoil Complete Marine Synthetic
Pennzoil Semi-Synthetic Outboard Oil
Mercury Optimax/DFI Oil
Yamaha Yamalube 2-M Semi-Synthetic Injector Oil
Bombardier RAM Ficht Oil
Where does one stand if you use a different type. Is this GFN brand suitable?
The saga continues"
