[QUOTE="turbotodd, post: 469434, member: 7376"] The additive package in automotive lubricants favors an engine that runs at 50% load or less for most of it's life. The additive package for FC-W marine 4 stroke engines is designed around engines that run at 100% load and 100% maximum RPM most of the time. I ain't saying rotella isn't bad stuff. Just saying that a lubricant that is designed for the engine's intended usage might be a better choice. But it's your engine and you are certainly free to lubricate it however you please. [/QUOTE]
