A neighbor has just found out the hard way about what the difference between marine hd motor oil and standard automotive oil. He has a boat with 8.1 volvo pentas that are 2 years old. For the last 200 hours he has changed his own oil using penzoil or castrol 20w40. He just discovered that the "top end" of his engine has been starving for oil because of foaming. A factory volvo technician confirmed all of this, even changing the oil in one engine and not the other and running the boat for about 20 minutes at 3800 rpm with the owner on board, then showing the boat owner the dipsticks and sure enough the engine with marine oil was normal and the other engine with automotive oil was full of bubbles. It appears that marine oil has a anti-foaming agent added to it to prevent "foaming" during extended high rpm runs. Has anyone else run into this before?
