Don’t Accept Substitutions for Evinrude XD100 Oil
When you spend a lot of money on a boat, it just makes sense to spend money to maintain it properly. Would you buy a new car and then fill the engine with subpar oil? Your boats engine is no different. If you spend the money on the equipment, than there is no reason to let it fall apart by using a slightly cheaper substitute for the right kind of oil.
Boat’s engines are set to a certain type of oil. They can be reset to accommodate different types, if that is what you choose. However, if you’re trying to substitute a different type of oil for something like Evinrude XD100 oil, than you have to make sure that your boat has already been reset to use this other type. Failing to do so, can void your warranty and harm your engine.
