Does anyone , or has anyone ever used fully synthethic ep 90 in the lower unit of 225 optimax

oh my god no, would suggest you use the quicksilver gearoil as is a marine environment oil and i beleive the oils are usually a bit friendlier if spilt but not sure

ep 90 stinks wheras the quicksilver does not really smell

No No I didnt mean spilling gear oil, I meant has anyone used fully syntethic as opposed to Quicksilver branded oil

You should use the Quicksilver High Performance gear oil on the that engine.
