Who in here runs premix? What type of oil do you use?

 

anything tcw-3 certified I believe. That outboard motor stuff.

 

2-stroke

 

I use the brand called "Search". It's damn good stuff .

 

i've been running Castor 927 in mine.

 

ahhh good brand I usually pick that stuff up for about 8 bucks a gallon

 

I use the stuff from walmart... Super-tech i think its called. Its cheap, and its tcw-3

 

I run Idemitsu....well havent actually ran it yet....LOL But in my fresh Jpsec swap thats what I'll be running....that stuff is the best....but it is a little more expensive than the others...but hey I love my Apex Seals. Idemistsu is only available in 2 places here in the U.S. if im not mistaken.

 

I use the Walmart stuff...buy it by the gallon. It's TCW3 rated and seems to do fine in my 91 N/A.

 

Please search. This has been covered many times in the past.

 

how much oil per gallon do you guys use?

 

not in the searching mood?
i use wal mart: $1.18 per bottle
i've been told .75-1.00 ounce per gallon.

 

I did search as I always do, but I never get the specific answers that I need

 

If you didn't find it in the search, then you didn't search well enough. Normal is 1 ounce per 1 gallon, if you have the MOP still you use less, if you want added protection or overkill you use more.

 

Whatever the convient store i'm located at has in stock.

 

valvoline 2-stroke tcw3 certified oil.

add one to my postcount yay :p

I know I'm going to get flammed but I rock MMO as pre-mix.

 

I want to see tear down pics of an engine that used MMO; i'm curious as to what the findings are.

 

^^^agreed!

 

Mobil 1 Full Synthetic TCW-3 certified 2-Stroke oil
$3.99 for a 16oz bottle from Autozone

 

Walmart baby

 

i use redline synthetic at a 100:1 premix if i plan on running near or possibly above redline, aside from that i just use standard 2 stroke oil that you can find anywhere that is TCW certified.

 

castrol super 2 stroke
16oz per fillup
S5 T2

 

oh, and i wouldn't use castor oil unless you rebuild often, it has high ash content and will carbon up seals, it is a good short term lubricant but not good for the long term.

i always did love the smell of castor oil and race gas though.
