How to select two-stroke oil

There's so many different kinds of oils on the market today, so how do you pick one? Col has the answers you need...

Klotz benol and maxima 927 are the best !! Smells like heaven

[joecline]

Man I run that Lucas oil 2 stroke pre mix. SEMI synthetic and I've put 90 hours on a two stroke running hard and the engine was perfect

Thanks you for the video. I'm chasing an oil for my dirtbike, Klotz Techniplate seems to be very popular but hard to get in Australia. It is s blend of castor oil. Can you recommend another tutor m type of blend instead?
The lube and smell of the castor is great, but I'm hoping if it's blended then it won't be too gummy.
Thanks for any assistance.

Motul 800 is the best oil out there, 40 hours plus on my motocross bike and not even a mark on the piston.

Mineral oil are totally ok for old mopeds like Puch or Tomos that only go about 5000rpm.

Castrol a747 is good oil also castor/synthetic. So is TTS or now called power1 full synthetic. Had been using it fir over 25 years neva had a issue with eitha oil

Castor is good shit. It's in all my nitro RC fuels and these little 2 stroke nitro engines turn MUCH more than just 13k RPM. I've got one that turns 42K, yep 42, 000 RPM, tachometer confirmed(it was actually 42, 119). If it can take 40K RPM's in a nitro engine, then I'd trust it to just about anything. It does leave a residue, but not enough to really bother anything in a 2 stroke. I recommend it highly over synthetic for high RPM applications.

You forgot Group IV, PAOs derived from natural gas.
Ester based oils are 100% synthetic,
not fully synthetic
which means hydrocracked petroleum.

What should I use for my little generator? it's just a little 49cc 800 Watt peak little puke from China, but I've grown fond of it. I've been using Yamalube 2R because I use it for my dirtbikes and it's what I have. Is there something more appropriate that I should be using?

[themotofixery]

this is the best 2 stroke oil information on YouTube! thanks!

[jankee]

Castor 927 is the best one my engine have 200 hours and still perfect. I make it 0.75 x litters

[steveeber]

I'm not an expert but it seems to me that an oil that does not burn clean is not burning completely. Whereas an oil that leaves no residue is either burning as fuel or blowing out as smoke. One thing you never see with synthetic oil is smoke. Caster based oils on the other hand not only leave carbon, but smoke as well. As to film strength, the main reason automotive producers have gone to requiring synthetic oil is due to it's high film strength.

I have used caster based oil with good ( but gummy results). I left 927 mixed with racing gas over the winter. Knew I needed to dump it but didn’t.
IAME 175 trash ( had to buy new one). IAME X125 rebuildable with new parts. DO NOT LET 927 SIT MIXED WITH GAS OVER WINTER !!!

[david]

Its a shame they can't make a fully synthetic oil that's smells like the castor oils like R30 nice...

[arthursmith]

I use Marine two stroke TCW3 rated in my Jeep and Volvo. I've been doing this for years with great results. The ratio is 1oz oil to 5 gallons of gas. That's a 640/1 ratio. Use this formula for best results. Do this every time you get gas for best results. Lubes and cleans the whole system and keeps the engine from wear. You will get quicker starts. Lots of testing has been done and it works great.Cheaper Than Lucas fuel conditioner and Marvel Mystery oil
Do this and you won't know your car is running at idle. Google Sarge LS1 marine oil in cars. He is the guru of testing.

I use silkolene the best i found yet 2t semisyntetic i have a scooter from 2002 still runnig strong no trouble

[Ace]

Could i run these 2 stroke oils on a 49cc pocket bike

[Psybinn]

What oil should i use? i use a little 50cc scooter and just got my driving license and don't know what to use

[maxpower]

I was shocked to see how dirty 927 burns after taking the top end off my 125. I suppose I've gotten spoiled using Yamalube R previously.

while doing research I came across this video (very informative) yet my question is regarding a commercial trimmer. I welcome your thoughts. I love the smell and the concept of Caster based. Just curious if I've done something wrong. thank you so much for your input !
I need some help guys. I was using the Blendzall 455 Ultra product, at a 50:1 ratio like recommended by the manufacture Redmax. I was using the Blendzall in my Redmax Trimmer Bcz260ts and absolutely Loved the trimmer (and I've used them all) I also love the smell lol. The motor began to get harder to start and seemed to be losing power it was only 4 months old and still under warranty YET when I took it in for evaluation, they said it was run without oil (straight gas ) and the Piston and cylinder wall were both scarred. They refused to warranty. I told them that I was sure it had oil/ Blendzall and they still refused to warranty. I would like to be able to use the Blendzall product but it appears that it has failed. Did I do something wrong? I saw a comment that it has NO protection if its been cold. I did have on porch over the winter. Please advise, I just don't want to throw 300 away again. Michael and thanks so much in advance.
