    well it seems… that a one point as per one user on the ETEC board,   the Evinrude BRP folks  did market  a ” biodegrable”  product  but has mentionned   a DI  ETEC type engine

    burns all the  oil if any gets mixed in the fuel .  The bio thing was more of  a marketing  feel good thing !

     

    Early  ETECs like my 2005  had one  xd-1oo oil  feeder hose  joined to the fuel  line probably  to benefit from its Carbon Guard  properties  but this practice  has been discontinued.

    in any event xd-100  is synthetic  but not bio as per the technical document above.

    As a product of the baby boomer  generation I am a bit biodegradable myself. 🙂
