Hi Bubba,

I haven't bought a 300X, yet. So I don't know what the warranty would be if you used another type of oil. On my 1998 300 ProMax, I ran Penzoil Synthetic and never had any problems. In the States, I could by a 2.5 gallon jug at WalMart for around $18.00.

Have you ran your boat yet? Can you post a new picture with the boat rigged?

SCT

Synthetic smokes a bit less and smells better. http://www.checkmate-boats.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif
