I have a 2006 Tige 24VE with a 5.7L V8 MPI engine. What type of oil should I put in and how much? It seems like I can't see any on the dipstick right now so I am assuming I should add some. Any info would be great.
Thanks!!
Thanks!!

If its been more then 50 hours since the last service or you do not know when it was last done, I would suggest changing it as opposed to topping off.
4 stroke marine engine oil is ideal, due to the extra level of moisture inhibitors. otherwise, regular motor oil is fine. im partial to 10W40 motor, or 15W-40, which seems to be a common weight for marine 4-stroke oil. I am not a fan of synthetic, especially in "toys" that sit from time to time.Mikes Liquid Audio: Knowledge Experience Customer Service you can trust-KICKER WetSounds ACME props FlyHigh Custom Ballast Clarion LiquidLumens LEDs Roswell Wave Deflector And More -
I think it will take about 5.5 quarts with a filter. I try to get the engine level when checking the oil. I have used quicksilver 25w-40 and Purple filters.Comment

The frustrating thing is I bought this boat a few months ago and the dealer said he did a "full service" on it, but it seems like the oil is a little low and when I pull out the dipstick I see little to no oil on it. it worries me a little, but I am very new to marine engines so I have no idea.Comment
