Anyone use it? How do you like it? I'm thinking of trying it in my T-8.

Assuming your talking about 4stroke oil??? I run the 2stroke oil in my Merc main and kicker. Lots less smoke than the merc oil. No complaints here...

Currently using their motorcycle oil. Seems to work good, shifting is nice. Their motorcycle and marine specific oils actually have a industry standard certification (JASO, TC-W3) unlike the majority of their products.

Sorry, not true, as a dealer I have tried to get them to do that for over 30 years, shows how much clought I have! :) The lable only states to use where those certifications are needed!
Now, the marine four stroke oil "IS" certified for marine use! I believe that it is API-FW!

I believe in it. I use it in eveything from motors, trannies, diffs and whatever else. I am very hard on my quads and they are still on their first motors while my friends have rebuilt. When I say hard, I like to drag race them. I run them up to the rev limiter (12,000 rpm four stroke) and slide my fingers off the clutch in second gear (also called launching:D).....same clutch also. I am much nicer to the boat, truck, car and everything else but still. I am very impressed with it. I also save money because of extended drain. Cheers! Balou :twocents:
