Re: Minimum time to switch to synthetic?

YUP - I plan the same lube program, for all the same reasons. Dunno how much lube volume your engine holds, but less than a quart for my Nissan 9.8 - so the ratio of oil cost vs extra protection is minimal, and well worth the slight extra expense - at 72 years of age, I plan that this will be my LAST outboard engine, so I plan to give it extra care!

About 2 1/2 quarts with an oil filter change. Cheap enough to change once a month during the salmon season.
