this is what the recommendation is for MPI engines from Mercury. I have never heard of just putting oil in the water separating filter.

Fogging Mixture

In a 6 US gal (23 L) remote outboard fuel tank, mix:

5 US gal (19 L) regular unleaded 87 octane (90 RON) gasoline.

64 fl oz. (1.89 L) Mercury or Quicksilver Premium Plus 2-Cycle TC-W3 Outboard oil.

5 fl oz. (150 mL) Mercury or Quicksilver Fuel System Treatment and Stabilizer, OR 1 fl oz. (30 mL) Mercury or Quicksilver Fuel System Treatment and Stabilizer Concentrate.

New Fogging Procedure

1. Disconnect and plug boat’s fuel line from Water Separating Fuel Filter inlet.

2. Connect remote outboard fuel tank (with the fogging mixture) to the inlet of the Water Separating Fuel Filter.

IMPORTANT: If the boat is out of the water, follow instructions for running engine on flush device as found in service manual for the engine being fogged.

3. a. Cool Fuel models: Start and run engine at 1300 rpm for 5 minutes.
b. VST models: Start and run engine at 1300 rpm for 10 minutes.

4. After specified running time is complete, slowly return throttle to idle rpm and shut engine off.

IMPORTANT: Do not run engine’s fuel system dry of this fogging mixture in the 6 US
gal (23 L) remote outboard fuel tank.

Note: quantity can be reduced by dividing by 5"
 
2 cylce oil readily mixes w/ga

2 cylce oil readily mixes w/gas and protects the internal workings of the engine and injectors. The stabilizer preserves what fuel that is left in the fuel lines and injectors. That is what Merc. wants done.
 
"All my mechanic does is take

"All my mechanic does is take off the air filter and add RISOLON from a squirt bottle while throttling up the engine. When you get a good cloud of white exhaust, shut the engine down. Done."
