Would this be a suitable oil, or would anyone recommend another brand?

I use this:

Morris 5lt Marine 10W-40 10w40 Oil Classic Marine Canal Boat Barges UK MADE | eBay This looks like a similar oil type ive also been looking at.

Hi, it's usually just not the grade but the API rating, Vyv cox of this parish is the chap to ask, he worked in the oil industry for a long time and has helped me in the past

As per the manual the recommended oil specification was clear:





While CC and CD are since long obsolete, your luck is that later oils are backwards compatible.

Hence any oil marked CF, CG, CH, CI on the label is fine. Viscosity is not too important but something 15W-40 if you can't get 5W-20 is fine.

So the one mentioned in the OP fits the bill

For my DV24 I use Shell Rimula R4 X 15W-40 (SAE 15w - 40 API Cf-4)

I use Smith and Allan Ultra 15-40. it's mineral and CF-4 - and very good value!

Stick to mineral rather that synthetic and 15W-40 or 10W40; beyond that the cheaper the better.
