Used Amsoil Marine for years with no clutch issues. Severe Gear is another story.

No but doubt George is shipping it on his dime either.

Lol,
I was asking so we compare buying from NEO, AADS, Amazon, or anywhere else. product cost + shipping cost = total cost. Total cost is what I look at. |
$10 shipping for 2 gal. $152 total

It appears Amsoil has changed their formulation in the Severe Gear. George from All American Drive ran into it a while back and is warning people. He sells NEO oil which is a bit pricey, $85.00 a gallon, that's why he can warranty a drive for 24 months even in high horsepower applications. If you want your drive to live as long as possible than you need to be using NEO. I have 2 years on the oil in my drive and it's still clear. I was nervous about running gear lube that long especially the way I drive, so I check it regularly and magnets are clean and oil is clear. Transmission shifts like a dream.

Overkill. Wasting money at twice / season if using a good oil. Unless you put on 200 hrs each year.

Maybe. But merc recommends it. Plus, how will you know that you've got water in the drive until you drain it?? I'd rather know at 25 hours vs 200 hours!
MAINTENANCE DRY SUMP SIX DRIVE MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE Initial break‑in at 25 hours. Drive ‑ Change Oil and filter Every 50 hours of operation. Perform 25 Hour Maintenance Items.

Gotcha.
I didn't realize you have #6's. I'm not familiar with the maint requirements on yours. |
