would be very informative info to all , let's see what we all are using thanks

Many have run the wally world stuff without issue. I liked the PENNSOIL blend because of the reduced smoke myself. The synthetic blend cuts down on alot of the smoke at idle on premix engines.

Oil injected or fuel injected?

I always used the Mercury premium plus. Worked great for 20 years (94-2014) until the oil alert module failed and I didn't fill the tank.

I've run the Mercury oil before in the past. It works fine, but was SMOKY compared to the pennzoil blend, and the it cost more even catching it on sale.

When I had oil injection on my merc, I ran the merc oil. I have had issues with the pennsoil and oil injection. The pennsoil is a thinner viscosity oil, and I've had problems with smoking and excessive oil consumption with the pennsoil stuff with oil injection. The other really good oil for oil injection is yamalube.

I never used it. I know alot of guys here did with premix, but for oil injection I would run a high grade of 2 stroke like yamalube or the mercury stuff.

I've used supertech for pre mix, but would use the manufacturer's brand for oil injection.
