Just seen this thread, and am intriqued.. just how much 2 stroke oil do you add, and how often??
Got some castrol 2 stroke in the shed, left over from the petrol mower my Dad had.. Might just be a good use for it??

Waste not....want not as he used to say 

1 oil part to 200 diesel

So thats er....about 360ml

Cheers for that Mark, will give it a go when I fill up next..    Got a litre of 2 stroke in the shed, good for a few miles then

My personal opinion is that it will help the diesel pumps remain lubed well and keep them reliable longer.

There's a big difference in quality and price of 2 stroke so before i empty my oil tank on the bike ( still needs new engine as existing one is knacked from main baring failure), Is the cheapo 2 stroke that i wouldn't dare put in a chainsaw not to mention bike/scooter any good for the job or am i looking at a good quality oil?

Im sorry im digging up a old topic without using the original post but feel that there's a lot of new members here joining on daily/weekly basis and thought that some of them might be interested in this topic.

Note; admin just delete if you want

TCW3  2 stroke oil is a very high spec oil used in outboard engines. May be over specked but if quality is your aim thats the one to go for

if you filled up how much oil would you add

around 350ml to a full tank

If the tanks "full" ... how do you add 350 ml ...
