Default Re: E-TEC vs Four Stroke

You can't run regular oil - period, DI motors oil differently and crankcase temps are higher. A close friend replaced a Merc 150 with a new '03 DI 200 (close to an Etec) almost threw out the back on the water test, after he was warned LOL, but he says its amazing the difference. The guy has 2 more of the same motors a 225 and 250 in the box 7 tr warrenty
