Honda 2 hp outboard

[RMA]

I have mislaid the handbook for my five year old 2 hp Honda outboard. Can anyone remind me of the recommended grades of oil for the engine and gearbox please?

Many thanks

almost any multigrade oil should do for the engine.
i have a book on the boat will look @ the w/e.

I use standard multi grade also, When I bought the engine it came with blue (honda) oil so that you could see it clearly on the dip stick. but since the first oil change I have used standard and mine engine is about the same vintage with no problems.

Regards.

its only a "lawn-mower" engine after all & would rather it were on my dinghy than the lawn & tethered to a palm tree Nr the beach bar

It says 10W30 on mine (1 yr old but assume the same) but when I couldn't get hold of 10W30 one of the service agents I rang said he always used 10W40 Multigrade.
