Yamalube

[TDaigle]

Does anyone have a place to by Yamalube at a good price? The cheapest I can find is $24 a gallon. I live in the Lafayette area but I go to Houston monthly and fish big lake so Lake Charles is not out of the question.

i used to pick that up at Lafayette Power sports. I used to have a Yamaha Banshee that was a 2-stroke. I dont know where Lafayette Power sports is now.

Im sure you can even get it at a place that sells anything that has to do with Yamaha..

Iberia outboard on hwy 90 in new Iberia has it. Im pretty sure it is 17.95 for 2 stroke, 19.95 for 4 stroke. Its on the way to the point.

Some of the Motorcycle/PWC shops have it in 50 Gal Drums and will sell it out of there if you bring 5 Gallan Can. I have found it to be cheaper that way

Yeap... I went to a place in New Iberia that sold it out of 55 gallon drums, I use Optimax oil and it usually goes for 37 a gallon, but can usually get it for 20 out of the drum. Or in an unmarked gallon.

Where do you buy your Optimax oil and what is the price???? I have not found a place better than Jerry's Marine in Sulphur for price. I bought some the other day for $23 a gal. in bulk.

I work at a car dealership and get bulk 55gal from Smitty's Oil for $850 a drum the last time I bought. Comes out to like $15.45 a gal well worth the initial price.

Best price I have seen yet. When I get ahead, I may have to get with you for a drum. I am using about 2 gallons a week right now.

I stumbled upon it somewhere in new iberia. I cant remember the name, I think its Himel Marine on 336 W Saint Peter. They buy it by the drum and sell them in unmarked jugs.

Also where do you get your spark plugs? Im paying 20 dollars a plug for the IR plug for my Optimax.

$20.95/gal in Pierre Part. Well, they say it's Yamaha. It seems to burn real well but, like Cat, it is unmarked jugs. Same color too.

[Cutty713]

Same here as catdaddy, I keep my jugs b/c for the fall I will buy a 50/55 gallon drum that I will split with 2 other Yamaha 250 HPDI owners. I will post details here.

[all star rod]

No oil to add.....that is why I LOVE my 4 stroke Yamaha.....when I had my HPDI most places were pretty much all the same price...give or take a dollar or two.

Bought some the other day for $13 something at NAPA in Lake Arthur. That is for a 90 hp Opti.
