1st... Moxie I don't intend to cause a war feud or anything of the sort...

2nd.... I never claimed facts... I said don't use tactics not based in fact

3rd..... Based on an article posted here 30% of oil from a two stroke makes it to water.... so 30% of a gallon, is 70% less then 1 gallon.... and at 30% with an older outboard I would agree that this could be true....I argue that this is a huge difference.

So, my definition of a scare tactic, is taking a fact and glorifying it for a purpose.... And as I stated, outboards are not polluting machines.... they are not the best for the environment... and probably about as bad for environment as oiling ones car.......

I actually have no problem with the practice of oiling cars, I just don't see it as necessary.
