Winterizing. DEALER sold me gear oil that I now find does not seem to meet specs??
XPS Marine - high performance - gear lube SAE marine. Meets GL 5
recommended for use in VOLVO and OMC from 1978. NO MENTION of either SYNTHETIC or SAE 75W 90

I have half L of quicksilver merc high performance which says NOTHING about SAE 90 or any other spec (dated 2019). Can I add .44 L of this to top up or should I leave it down .44 L over the winter? Drain and refill in the spring.
Q: OR Is it ok to leave the drive .5 L short of what it should take over the freezing cold winter
Drain and refill next year??
Driving me nuts. Last day at cottage- Thanks!
