synthetic oil verses tradisional?

can synthetic oil be used in a rotary will it make the motor last longer? if it can't be run why can't it. the lubricating quatilties are extremely good? if so what weight should be used? also to make the life of the motor longer can a little oil be put in the gas to lubricate the motor more?
thanks

You can put a little bit of 2 cycle oil in your gas to help.



There is ALOT of info on here about oils and 2 stroke.
