Motor oil for 5.0 MPI
Hi All I have now run my new to me 1999 200 for a month now and am getting ready to change the oil. She has a 5.0l MPI Mercruiser alpha 1 and will be run at sea level. What oil should I buy and how much does it take? Thanks

Okay another question: Is there a hose or anything attached to the bottom of the pan for easy oil change or do I have to suck it out of the dipstick tube? I looked for a pan tube but didn't see any.

Unless you install a drain hose in the pan you need to suck it through the dipstick. I prefer the dipstick anyway.
