I bought one of the last 02 Mobius LSV's on my dealers lot a few weeks ago. Just have a couple questions so far. Moomba and Indmar both recommend to use Pennzoil Marine 15w-40 oil. Well it just so happens that this oil isn't exactly easy to find. I was curious if it is ok to use Pennzoil long life 15w-40. It carries the same API service as the marine does. Also along those lines is it ok to use the standard Pennzoil SAE 30 in the V-drive. Their is no direction whether to use the marine version for this application.
Next I was wondering if someone could provide me some info on all aspects of cleaning the boat, i.e. recommended marine or general products for hull, aluminum, vinyl, etc. What works best for cleaning right after pulling boat from water, weekly/monthly washing, polishes, waxes.
I have heard different recommendations such as vinegar and water or meguiars quick clean marine for ramp cleaning, meguiars #10 clear plastic polish is awesome for monthly maintenance on gel, teflon polish is the best for annual care. The list goes on and on. Some help would be greatly appreciated!
