Synthetic is the good stuff 80/90 wt.

I have been using inboard/outboard lower drive unit synthetic. Mainly because I had a bunch left over from a hole in the water I once owned. Those units live rough lives, so I figure the grease must be pretty good. So far, no failures or drive problems.

That's a good idea. I can't see why not. I prefer marine grade products
