Using Yamalube 2W Oil While in the Caribbean

domo online blog 5 11-03-14This month, my grandparents are going on a cruise to see a bunch of the different islands in the Caribbean. While they’re away on their Caribbean vacation, I am going to be watching their house, and responding to the emails that they send me about how nice of a vacation they are having down in the tropical part of the world. They make me wish that I was there.

Just yesterday, they sent me an email talking about how they planned to go out on some personal watercraft and soak up the sun. This email really made me miss the summer here when my brother and I would often fill our boats up with Yamalube 2W oil and zip around the lake. Now it is almost impossible for us to do this because the lake water is just too cold.

Mercury Two Cycle Oil is Best for My Boat

domo online blog 4 11-03-14When I made the switch to a Mercury engine for my boat, I knew that I also needed to switch the type of oil that I was using. My new engine required an oil that could be used in direct injection applications rather than one that required the oil to be mixed directly into the gasoline in order to be used properly.

Since I knew that I was using a Mercury outboard motor, I determined that it would be a very good idea to choose direct injection oil that was made by Mercury. I ended up picking out a Mercury two cycle oil the exceeded all of the recommendations for use with my engine. I was very happy with the way that the oil worked when I put it into my engine.

Mercury Engine Oil Keeps My Mercury Motors Running Efficiently

domo online blog 3 11-03-14You can’t easily get away with using a different grade of oil without experiencing serious problems as a result. When you have a motor that is made by a specific company that makes a lot of other boating equipment, it is much more important that you use the right oil. The right oil is made to make these motors operate well.

For example when I bought a Mercury outboard motor, I knew that I would not be able to use just any old oil. To make sure that the motor ran as efficiently and expertly as it was intended, I had to make sure that I used the Mercury engine oil that actually went with it. Only this type of oil could ensure that my motor kept working the way that it was intended to.

Rough Water Boating and Evinrude XD100 Oil

domo online blog 2 11-03-14Even though fall is fully underway right now, my brother suggested that we go out on the water this weekend. Some fall weekends would actually be pretty good for boating, but this last weekend certainly wasn’t one of them. I was going to have to run both of my Evinrude engines just to make it so we were able to push against the waves in a decent way.

Luckily, I had plenty of power between these two engines to make it so that we were able to move through even the roughest water without having a lot of difficulties. Before we left, I made sure that my engines were running with plenty of Evinrude XD100 oil, because I knew that we could not afford to break down out in the middle of the water.

Which Oil is the Best Outboard Motor Oil Depends Entirely on Your Boat

domo online blog 1 11-03-14When you find yourself in the predicament of making sure that you are picking the best oil for your boat, there are many things that you must consider. Just buying high quality oil is not enough because not all oil is meant for every single type of engine. You have to look at the type of engine that it is meant to be used with and ensure it meets all of your engines guidelines.

Looking at the ratings on the oil can make it so that you are sure that this is actually quality oil rather than just oil for anything else. Picking an oil that matches the brand of engine that you will be running can also be a very good idea. Most manufacturers know what the best outboard motor oil for their engines is and will make sure that their oil meets engine standards.

If You’re Running a Yamaha Outboard Yamaha 2M Oil Is the One for You

domo online blog 5 10-27-14When you buy a boat, it is up to you to make sure that your boat continues to run at its peak performance since no one else will be able to do it for you. The key to keeping a boat running well is identifying what kind of maintenance it needs early on so that you can make sure to keep up with this. You are the only one who can be responsible for keeping your boat running.

For those people who have a Yamaha 2 stroke outboard, most of what you need to do is make sure that your boat always has a mix of gasoline and Yamaha 2M oil keeping it running. The oil is made by the same manufacturer as the outboard, which can be one of the best ways to ensure that the oil and the outboard motor continue to work well together all of the time.

Mercury Optimax Oil is Necessary for My Brother’s High Performance Optimax Outboard

domo online blog 2 10-27-14When my brother first decided that he wanted a new outboard motor, he decided to look for one with better performance and ability than the one that he had at the moment. His older motor was a hand-me-down from one of our friends so it wasn’t one that ran particularly well. Almost any motor that my brother bought would have been better than that one.

In the end, my brother chose an Optimax outboard motor because he liked how efficient these motors were. He has enjoyed the motor ever since he decided to get it for his boat because of the amount of power he can get from it. The motor works perfectly for his purposes and has always been very efficient as long as he always puts Mercury Optimax oil in it on a regular basis.

Programming My Outboard to Use Evinrude XD50 Oil

domo online blog 1 10-27-14When I first bought my Evinrude E-Tec engine, I had to make the decision about whether to have it programmed to run on XD100 oil or on XD50 oil. At the time, I was focused on spending less money where I could. Even though I knew that my engine would use a bit more oil if I programmed it to use XD50 oil, I decided that it would be worth avoiding extra costs.

I am not entirely sure that I made the right decision because my engine does seem to use a lot of Evinrude XD50 oil. I know that XD100 oil can be very expensive, but wonder whether having this oil would have been a better choice because the motor would not have consumed as much of it as quickly as it does now. I am hopeful that the cost is at least similar.

Some Bulk Motor Oil is Sure to Last Me Longer than Individual Gallons

domo online blog 5 10-20-14When I was first buying oil for my boats, I was buying it a little at a time from a local store. It felt like I always was in that boating shop looking for the oil that I needed to take my boat out the next day. I just went through oil so quickly that it felt almost silly to continue buying it in such small containers all of the time. I felt like it was getting too expensive.

That’s when I decided to go online to find large amounts of boat motor oil for sale at more reasonable prices. I was able to purchase bulk motor oil without having to worry about paying too much for my oil. This made it so that I always had the oil that I needed and I never had to run to the store to try and get more oil for my boat when I suddenly ran out of it.

Trusting Yamalube Oil to Support all of My Yamaha Engines

domo online blog 4 10-20-14When I look to buy any kind of motor, I usually am looking at Yamaha brand. This is because the outboard motors and snowmobiles that I have purchased from this brand in the past have always lasted me a long time and performed excellently. The snowmobile in my garage right now has a Yamaha engine as does the outboard motor that is on my fishing boat.

Part of making sure that these motors function for me when I need them the most is making sure that I take care of them properly. I always make sure to fill these engines with good quality gasoline and to only use Yamalube oil with them. When I take good care of these motors they continue to work for years and years without needing any repairs.

Picking Two Cycle Outboard Oil that is Good For Your Outboard

domo online blog 3 10-20-14If you own a two cycle outboard motor, you know that there is a lot more oil that goes into operating this engine than goes into your car or truck. You have to put oil in each time that you fill up with gasoline so that the engine is able to stay properly lubricated all of the time. While many different types of oil are available, it is important to pick a good one for you outboard.

One great way to find out which oil is a good one for your outboard is to look at the owner’s manual for your outboard motor. This will usually recommend a type of two cycle outboard oil that works best for your outboard. Another good way to choose is to find two cycle oil that is made by the same manufacturer that made the outboard motor in the first place.

Optimax Oil is Needed in a Special Kind of Engine

domo online blog 2 10-20-14With many outboard motors, the operator actually has a bit of choice when it comes to buying oil for the motor. It isn’t the end of the world if you have to use the cheaper brand of oil a few times because your local marina has run out of your favorite brand. Some people even manage to run these outboards only on cheap oil for the majority of their lives.

For some more special outboards, like Optimax outboards, it is important to buy oil that is made for this engine. Since the engine has special requirements that other oils might not be able to provide, you should always stick to using Optimax oil when you are operating this outboard. Using another type of oil could cause damage to the outboard in the long run.
