I had an interesting chat with a marine mechanin last week who suggested that the dye in marked gas was not good for outboards and recommended using 'regular' fuel. While I do like the fact that the marine marked is typically 89 octance, so by the time I see it is around 87 I am curious what others think. I understand the rationale to be that a little of the dye in the engine oil causes it to break down and lose it lubrication properties quicker. Given I've got a full tank of marked fuel at the moment I am not going to be draining it but what are others using/thoughts?
