best brand oil for the ratio 24 to1 mix.

[Rene F Moran]

Any one out there can help on a suggestion of: What oil brand is best to use on my 1960 Gale Montgomery ward outboard motor mixing ratio 24 to 1 to minimize smog and less water pollution, safer for the marine living animals and vegetation.

1. Make sure it is rated TC-W3 outboard oil. Do not use car oil.

2. 100% Synthetic is best for less smoke, environment. Bio-degradable.

3. Synthetic blend is lower cost and easier to find. But less advantage, if any.

I’m sure you will get further opinions.

It’s good that you care about that stuff. So do I. But what you have to remember is, once upon a time, the world was FULL of 2 stroke engines, just dumping great mounds of oil and raw gasoline into the water; and somehow, it survived. One little engine, running for a short time here and there, isn’t going to amount to a pee hole in the snow, in the Big Picture. I know it sounds kind of harsh but you have to admit, it’s true.

Long live American manufacturing!
