What type of oil for counterbalance shaft for seadoo 951 limited

[Jackie.Meyer]

Hello
I have a Seadoo GSX 951 Limited from 1999.
I have searching for a while to find out what oil i am going to use for the counterbalance shaft.
Is it a special oil? Can i use gearbox oil SAE 75w-80 or a high quality motor oil 0w-30.

Seadoo has changed as some manuals said synthetic 2 stroke oil and some said straight 30w engine oil.

I wouldn’t use gear oil myself. I use 30W engine oil.

thank you,
30W is that the same oil as SAE 30 you use on a lawnmower?
I'm from Denmark so it is just to be sure we are talking about the same oil.
