Quick oil question

[Av8tor07]

Is this the stuff to use on the 1.8 liter? Or should I buy the one with picture of the boat and jet ski on the front? Thanks

I use the yamalube watercraft only.
I am sure that would work but why chance it

When I do get the right oil, about how much will I need? Is 2 gallon jugs and 1 or 2 quarts enough?

When i do my oil changes with filters it was exactly 1 gallon per motor.
Same for ENCboaters boat when i did his oil change on his 2014 AR240
Wouldn't hurt to have an extra quart on hand

No prob, your welcome

Any other opinions?

It's stated in the manual that capacity is 1 gallon, so that's all you should need. I did my oil the other day. Bought 2 kits from jetboatpilot.com for a good price.

Warm it up before you start extracting, goes so much faster.
If you position the boat tilted (slightly) down and to port you will get most oil out.

I just happened to be in Delaware for a while, there's no tax on purchases, so I wanted to get the oil, but all I saw was the one with the picture of the outboard motor, wanted to know if that oil could be used.

I have looked at every video on the oil change, it won't be a problem at all. My question has to do with the type that is available for me to purchase.

If it's 10W-40 and says 4W on it as well, it should be fine. Curious, how much was the oil? I looked around the internet for best oil and filter purchase pricing + delivery, but ended up buying from jetboatpilot.com. They were the best delivered price I could find.

I already have a pair of k&n filters that I bought on amazon. Each gallon was 29.99. I forgot what the quart was. I paid $69 for 2, 1 gallon jug and 1 quart. I guess the quart was like $10. There's no tax in Delaware.

I just changed my oil the other day and I used the Yamaha watercraft oil change kits as the price with filters came out to be about the same as going with Mobil 1 and K&N filters. I ended up putting in 3.5 quarts per ngine.

I'm still looking for different opinions on the oil that I purchased. Not sure if I should return it and get the one with the boat on the front.

Why take any chance to save a few bucks. Is it worth it? To me, no way. I spent a lot of money for my boat and will always put what the manual recommendations are.
4w only not 4m

I'll just exchange the oil
