first it's "concerning" for future reference.

second, the oil addage means that he also took out the oil metering pump (injects oil to lubricate apex seals) - the advantage to this is that 2 stroke oil tends to burn more cleanly and instead of a mechanical device failing the driver's memory fails.

Any TCW-3 2 stroke oil should be fine for your use. You may want to use more than 6oz (maybe up to 1 ounce per gallon).

You can research more by searching for "premixing" or "premix" as this is what this is called because you pre mix the oil with the gasoline instead of having the stock system do it for you.
