I've ran the Castor 927 in my 87 turbo for over a year and had no problem runs Grrreat, I've had no problems with carbon biuld up. And whats nice is i run it in my honda 250r also. I just bought another 5 gallon of it from dennis kirk i think it was like $220 Its the best 2 stroke oil out there in my mind.

Oh, and I've been using walmarts supertech TCW3 for 10k miles. At $1.14/16oz I'm laughing at everyone paying >$4. for basicaly the same **** thats labled differently. Granted the ash content on expensive **** probably lets their sparkplugs last about 500 miles longer. The cost of sparkplugs really doesn't justify it though.
Now stop posting and SEARCH.

Who uses Castor oil??? Your exhaust will make people **** their pants. Remember hearing about old old planes that used it. The exhaust was basiclly directed at the pilot. The had to prettymuch wear a diaper. Castor oil makes you poop. I had an old Husky dirtbike that required castor oil. You guys probably mean Castrol branded two cycle oil.

I use Maxima Castor 927, Its a racing 2-cycle oil its formulated with castor oil, high-performance additives and synthetic esters. It says it helps pervent spark plug fouling and carbon buildup. I run it in my honda 250R and i dont drive my T2 much so i run it in it also. I've ran it for a while now and have no carbon buildup, and No No problem with shitin my pants. The motor Runs great and i had a problem with detination a while back and the motor is still strong as ever.

wtf are you talking about? this is not the same stuff, go to any motocross race and you will be breathing castor oil and race gas. i didn't see anyone running for their life to the bathrooms, besides, castor oil was originally intended to make people vomit not crap themselves...

MMO is predominately mineral spirits. That's right......paint thinner. Paint thinner with some aromatics mixed in to produce the odor so many of you seem to enjoy coming from your exhaust

Meh, for some actual TCW3. Everyone look at the VISCOSITY index and compare it to MMO snakeshit.
Amsoil Injetex Premix (TCW3)
Motex 2Cyc Outboard (TCW3)
Lucas 2Cyc Racing Premix (TCW3)
MMO snakeshit (NOT TCW3)
Basicaly, MMO has right around an eigth of the viscosity of true TCW3 standard premix. viscosity is what protects your housings, not pretty pepermint smell.

Hi guys, pls excuse my trivial question, I'm a new owner from Malaysia. Just read through this whole thread and was suprised that ppl actually add 2 stroke oil into RE. Is the primary purpose to reduce apex seals wear? Wouldn't premix fuel reduces the Octane number of the fuel? So what r the Pros and Cons of using 2T oil?

I run premix in mine main cause
1. Don't trust the OMP anymore
2. I broke the Oil injector lines
3. S5 motor in S4 car, Electric omp on S5 and manual on S4, didn't fell like making it work again.
