It says on the wave runners to ONLY use yamalube 2-w. walmart has 3-w oil the is like 8 bucks cheaper a gallon! could I use this? could i use a different 2-w oil beside the yamalube? What do you use? Thanks for any help!

I wouldn't mix oils in the oil tank. Drain completely before changing to something else. I use 2-m or 2-w yamalube pre-mix no oil tank. Tcw-3 oil is probably fine but stick with something trustworthy. Thing about yamaha, polaris and sea-doo oil is it is a lot cleaner burning and synthetic blended I believe.

I just noticed that the 760 calls for any tcw-3 oil and the 1200 calls for ONLY YAMALUBE 2-w. I have only had them a couple weeks and have been puting 2-w in BOTH..


So Could I switch to any tcw-3 or should I just run that in the 760 and strictly yamalube 2-w in the 1200? I can find tcw-3 in quicksilver and penzoil for A LOT cheaper than the damn yamalube! and would like to switch to that in both!?

Well, you usually pay for quality but TCW3 would work just fine. Drain the oil tanks and bleed the lines before you do it.

Thanks I ended up switching to walmart supertech tcw-3 in the 760 and it seems to be running A LOT better than it was on the yamalube! I am getting a d-plate to iliminate my cat converter and than I plan on running the supertech in the 1200 as well!?
