May be a silly question, but where is the best (cheapest) place to purchase Yamaha Four Stoke Oil?

Offhand I'd say Amazon or Leaders RPM

Any reason why it just has to be Yamaha oil?

No particular reason for Yami Oil.... From what I understand, I need to use a Marine Oil and NOT an automotive oil. Am I wrong, or just getting old?
Thanks, Sami

Run what the manual or under cowling sticker requirement calls for... Nothing super special about 4-Strokes or their lube requirements... Many Mercury use 10W30 and/or 20W40 which is generally only found in the marine dept.
