Wondering why our new 2007 E-Tec 90hp's seem to be a little smokey & also was going to top up the oil reservoir & noticed the oil was a bluish colour.............now the jug of xd-100 oil I have is golden coloured,the motor was supposedly programed for the xd-100 oil............Is xd-50 oil bluish in colour? Can I top up the reservoir with xd-100 if indeed it is xd-50 already in it? Something seems a little fishy here & am also going to call the dealer to double check with the programming.............thanks..........

Re: xd-100

If the engine is programmed for XD100 and you have XD50 in it you best drain that oil, purge the line and refill with XD100.
