What 2-Stroke oil do you use?
Motorrad:
My wife convinced me to buy some blenzall castor oil. To see if it will work in her essential oil candle.
Sweet
Motorrad:
Just opened a bottle of Motul 800 for the first time
First impressions..
looks and smells like thick ATF
Foxx4Beaver:
I always thought of Motul 800 as a really good oil.I remember factory Kawie using it back in the day in the supercross and motocross seasons.When I say "back in the day",it was the late 80's to mid 90's that I remember seeing them using it....whether they still do,I don't know.You would hope if they're using it, it's gotta be good.
meangreen500:
Redline 70 to 1 very little smoke, fuel half 100 half 110. runs great
2-Stroke Tom:
I use Bel Ray H1-R for all my 2-strokes (40:1 for my KX500) now. I've put quite a few miles on my Ex Team Green KX500, and the compression still checks great and the piston looks good just from inspecting from the exhaust chamber and intake ports. When I grew up racing, me and just about everyone I knew in District 37 was using Golden Spectro at 40:1. I did a lot of two stroke rebuilding and we decided to go with Golden Spectro based on the engines we kept taking apart. I think any good name brand two-stroke dirt bike oil will due as long as you are mixing at the recommended ratio.
