I currently have an 175 hp Mercury on the back of a 19ft deck boat. I have read here once in a while, someone will mention Klotz mix. Has anybody ever used Klotz mix in an outboard or can you use it. we currently use it in our 2 cycle off road bikes, but I didn't know if we could use it on outboards. Can anyone out there share any information on this. If we could use it I would perfer to because of the way the engines run with it. They run so much better with Klotz, at least thats been our experience.

I'm Sure you can run it I know many people running it in thier 2.5 offshores and alike the only down side i know is cost $25.00 a gallon for a low poformance is a bit rich but if all the 2 strokes you own a running the same thing thats a bouns

last boat had a 2.5 Merc. I tried using all kinds of different oils. from Merc-YamalubeR, The best I found was Synergyn(spelling?) didnt smoke at all, boat ran great and clean. I found it on scaryfast.com website. Its made for high performance outboards, try it, you will like it! And no I dont work for them... :D

I run Klotz KL-333 (synthetic) lube in my 2.4 bridgeport. I run 32:1 and have nothing but excellent things to say about it. I turn 7,200 - 7,500 RPM. You see a lot of formula one racers with Klotz stickers on the side of their boats. That should speak volumes about it. My engine builder who was an ex F-1 racer swears by it. You can order off their web site at www.klotzlube.com
Good Luck

Just make sure you use the o/b oil instead of the motorcycle oil. I have heard nothing but good things about klotz but I like the convenience of buying Penzoil 100% synthetic at walmart for $19.99 a gallon. It works good but does smoke more than some other oils.
Hey, TobTek, how much is that synergen oil cost per gallon? The no-smoke part sounds good to me.

have you tried amsoil? i use it and love it. it smokes less than the evinrude stuff. i also use their lower unit oil, and wheel bearing grease. great stuff! their full synthetic 2-cycle oil is only $17.80 per gallon. i'd love to hear from you and anyone else who'd like to know about amsoil. if you haven't figured it out, i am a dealer. my email address is jdirig4703@aol.com.
