[QUOTE="Old Guy, post: 1319375, member: 35438"] Try to refine that search. Try "Yamalube", for instance. That should find you a bunch of oil threads. Sometimes the search returns so many posts it's tough to sort through it all. But the answer's in your manual and quite easy to find. Does the manual specify 10w-30 or 10w-40? There's your answer. Use a good oil that meets the specs, change it regularly, and the engine / transmission should outlast you. You seem to be partial to Amsoil. That's all I use in anything and routinely go up to double the recommended intervals. And while you're at it go ahead and look up what oil filter's best. That'll keep you reading for a while too. ;) [/QUOTE]
