2 cycle oil in the gas

ive been doing some searching, and noticed that a lot of people use 2cycle oil in their gas. from what i understand, it is used to help lubercate the engine. im thinking about trying this out, but most people that do this, do it at every fillup. is it nessary to do this at every fillup for it to work correctly? can i just do it everynow and then, or will i just be wasting my money?

anyone know how much the octane is lowered by doing this?

I'm assuming your running a stock or chipped ecu. In that case you can do it whenever you want, every other fill up or not at all. Make sure it's TCW3 2 stroke oil.
