[QUOTE="senkosam, post: 505251, member: 24899"] I have a 2.5 Mercury and have been using 5W by mistake. Any problem? Just ordered 10W just in case. But one thing I didn't realize was the oil level indicator window's accuracy depends on the motor being [U]perfectly level[/U] or it may indicate an over- or under fill. Been there/did that until I bought a level. [/QUOTE]
