Oil for a two-stroke engine?

[Flip]

But are they as easy to de coke as the mineral based ones?? (serious question as have always been under the impression they arnt) Even if you are running 2 % less by volume.

I would think that the synthetic oil burns better and causes less smoke and coke because the molecule is more consistent and synthetic lubes have less additives in them, (just trust me on this). But I can also see that the coke from Synthetics is minimized but would be harder because there would be a lot less fluffy ash left after combustion.

I do believe you are right.

Use any oil with a JASO FC or FD rating, its on the back of the pack.
4 ltr packs work out cheaper than little 1ltr packs.

NEVER use cheap lawn mower oil or outboard oil, your engine wont thank you for it, good oil is important if you spend a lot of time on the motorway.

If you really keen, learn to check the colour of your spark plug it tells you alot of what is going on with your engine.

Make sure the plug is checked at every service those Indian engines can go lean.

Good points! Dunno 'bout you, but I've found it way harder to read plugs ever since we went lead free?

I cant read plugs that well but I find 2 smoker plugs easier than 4, plus 2t plugs seem to react to change faster : eg plug chops.

Dude good oil is imperative always not just motorways.

track days to?...

Yeah your right but some seem to need top oil while others can run ok on good oil.
The LML vespa clone needs top oil.

Synthetics ? what is a Synthetic oil people?
The Manufacturers now call Hydro Cracked group 3 oils Synthetics, which of course they aren't by the original description of what a Synthetic oil is, i.e a PAO (polyalphaolefin), smoke and mirrors now have the market (you guys) believing a group 3 is a synthetic.

p.s a synthetic is compatable with a mineral or a semi synthetic, it wont matter, however you will be reducing any advantage that synthetic oil has over lesser spec'd oils.

100%!

If you use Castrol hydrocracking it is not quality. This is not a full synthetic. Squeezed out of oil slops that were able to sell and as for the quality! Mobile 2 stroke too expensive and not suitable. "Ipon" very good! "Elf" too! Best MOTUL Scooter Expert (tehnosintez) in my opinion.

And no mineral! Mineral oil lubricates the bad, bad burns, settles a swamp in the exhaust (sludge) Result - clogged muffler (exhaust) and a dead engine! oil-free bearings, crankshaft and showered in the carbon. Carbon saws and erases all the mechanisms of friction!

Over 10 years of practice, scooters die of 3 reasons. (If not China)
1. Air filter (dust)
2. bad oil! (Bully, overheating)
3. Dumb driver

Use oil for lawn mowers or outboard motor boats can not. You will be able to go, but these oils work for other conditions.
Additional equipment (chainsaw, gasoline generators ...) the constant speed range, straight exhaust! (Often mix oil)
Outboard motors - linear load, cooling water, a consequence of lower temperature, no air filter, high humidity, strong exhaust back pressure, the additional conditions to reduce pollutants in the water.

If you thought It seems like the oil it, and in Zimbabwe the same oil. And then the questions, "think the carburetor is dirty, have to adjust the" ... but there was no compression, stuck rings and crankshaft bearings for jumping like a kangaroo in the desert! Overhaul or dump! You see the huge eyes in amazement ... But yesterday it no bad driving!?

Evil is accumulated gradually, but goes out one moment!

Scooters like children for me
