  • XD100 or TCW3

    I am sure this is answered on here somewhere but I am new and can not find it. I just purchased a boat with an E-Tec 150 on it (40 hours). The previous owner had it programmed for TCW3. Until I get it reprogrammed is it O.K. to run XD100 in it or should I keep using TCW3 in it. I have been told it is O.K., it will just use more XD100 oil than is necessary but want to make sure. Thanks

    Might be best to check with a dealership/repair center (for Johnson & evinrudes), 40hrs sounds like it may still be under some warranty? It may also be very simple to select a different oil in programming, where you select refueling options. They would also be the ones to answer those questions for you?

    Good luck.

      I called Evinrude and was told you can use XD100 oil on either setting. You cannot use a TCW3 oil on the XD100 setting though.
