Hypoid 90 marine gear oil would be best to be on the safe side,although I can't see why automotive transmission oil should do any harm.

No! If your engine is a 2 stroke you have to use 2 stroke engine oil. 2 stroke engines burn oil, so if you did use automotive oil, which is designed for 4 stroke car engines, the engine would carbon up and it would still need to be replaced more than once a year because it will be burned the same.

It does remember. maximum present day day 2 stroke outboards dynamically blend the gas and oil and use a low oil to gas ratio by way of fact they run cool. 2 stroke automobiles like a team observed are designed for a plenty larger oil gas ratio. it is not plenty which you employ a "marine" oil as this is you employ a 2-stroke oil designed to paintings good with the low oil:gas ratio your outboard makes use of. the cheap 2-stroke oil designed for a team observed could reason harm on your outboard.

It is best to get the two stroke marine oil.
