It appears to be fresh stock, here is the product page http://www.walmart.com/ip/Evinrude-J...d-Oil/17165299 it is blueish purple. It also says something about "increased detergents for cleaner burning"- I just finished up 3 quarts of the XD-30 I bought from the dealer, and it is definitely not the same stuff as walmart is selling.
After 3 quarts of the XD30, the inside of the prop is DIRTY. I can just imagine what my fresh rings and cylinders look like right now.> Stainless steel Merc cowling plates - $110 shipped TYD - LINK <

That container is the new packaging for XD-30 oil for non-dealer outlets. It is the same as Merc using the Mercury and the Quicksilver label to differentiate the same lubricants selling at dealers and non-dealers.

I was directed here from another site, specifically for XD100 "alternatives" .....here is what chaps my starfish about the whole XD100 issue, and this is just MY opinion....I will gladly use XD100, its a great oil.....but where I live you cant get it!!!!!! I either half to drive to Lake Lanier area 1 hour 15 minutes....or I have to drive south of Macon, 1 hour...or I have to go to Newnan(which will never happen again since the gallon I purchased from there was 49.00 plus tax).........it is crazy not to be able to locate xd100......so now that my 200ho is out of warranty, I have opted for the AMSOIL HPI Injector oil......called a local distributor, 26.75 per gallon, and he even dropped it off where I work....every freaking sporting good store in the entire Southeastern US can sell you any Yamaha or Merc oil.....but walk into a bass pro or sports authority and ask to be directed to the evinrude XD oil section...not gonna happen!!!!!! bass pro shop I can sort of understand, since the actually SELL mercury outboards......but for BRP to have there XD line of oils limited to a scattered group of BRP sales and service location is a piss poor business model at best....thats why one dealer can sell it in bulk for 29.00 per gallon and another can sell in sealed 1 gallon containers for 49.00 per gallon......a fair consistant price and market it and make it available to people that need it.......not knocking the quality of the oil in any way shape or form, just extremely disappointed with the wide variations in price and lack of ability to walk into a location and purchase it.....and yes I know I can order it online, but thats not the point for me,,,,I love the ETEC, just wish it was supported better with a larger network of dealers

My local academy sports and outdoors is now carrying XD100. It is mid 40's a gallon. They had some new BRP oil for 2 strokes too. Not the same color as XD30.

How long will BRP supply the XD-100 oil ?
Do they use XD-100 in other products ?
