Ive got a 25' Grady White
Ive got a 25' Grady White Dolphin w/ twin 175 ocean runners. I bought the boat used back in April from an eighty eighty year old man who had bought the boat to take his grandchildren on boat rides. The engines had 72 hours and ran like sewing machines. Since then I have put around 300 hrs on the motors and name brand oil was really puttin' a hurtin' on my wallet burning three gallons a day at twenty dollars a gallon. So about mid summer I starting using Wal-mart oil (6 bucks) twenty hours later my port engine locked up. Is it just s--t luck or is there really that big a difference in the name brand and the generic?
