Well, I searched for 2 stroke oil on the web and I see many synthetic or part synthetic 2 stroke oils. Are they safe for premixing? Do they have any adventage over non-synthetic ones? Thanks

 

Hell yes!
Research the specs on your favorite brands & look for low ash.

 

So, SureShot, 2 stroke synthetic oil is different from synthetic oil that doesn't really burn up all the way and kinda leaves a film?

 

synthitic 2 stroke oils made to burn, so its burns with very little to no ash content.

 

Sweet! I guess I'll look around and order some online Thanks, guys

 

I use Amsoil stuff. I buy it in bulk and they give you a preffered custemer discount for like $10 or something.

 

Which Amsoil 2-stroke oil do you use?

 

1:100 Stuff. I've been using it for around 20K miles so far.

 

Cool. I think I'm gonna give that stuff a try. Looks pretty good from what I read about them on internet so far

 

pre-mix is pre-mix.
Synth pre-mix is more expensive than mineral pre-mix.
That's about it.

has anyone tried the big gallon of 2 stroke that SAMS club sells? is that any good?
TIA

 

can you premix with synthetic if you use mineral in your crank case? Would the mixing of the two cause the world to blow up?

 

If that's the same stuff as at wal-mart, I've been using it for a while now...little thicker than the name brand stuff I was using, but a quick look into the tank when I had the fuel pump out showed good solubility/ dispersion in the fuel...TCW3 rated...

 

We are talking about "synthetic pre-mix" and not using "synthetic engine oil as pre-mix" - that's two different things.
