Has anyone used this Premix Oil?

http://www.amsoil.com/products/hpi.htm

It looks like it was designed for EFI engines. Anyone have any experience with this oil?

What else would you recommend?

MMO!!! i THOUGHT THAT YOU CAN NOT USE SYNTHETIC OIL . Something to the fact that when it burns it accumilates or biulds up or something or another.

Search. Lots of people on here use Syn with no problems. Many reputable shops like Tri-Point recommend Syn as well in their rebuilds.

Yeah, i've read all the posts. I was just curious if anyone had used this particular oil. It seems as though it would be a good fit for rotaries.

That last post of mine was aimed towards the guy that thought Syn was not to be used in rotaries. Another lie told by a lot of people. Mybe with the old syn's that was true, but with modern technology, carbon build up I believe is not an issue.


Zinx... I think some people do use that for premix. Personally, I don't premix. I just use Mobile 1 15-30

Marvel Mystery Oil is more of a cleaner than premix. It is too thin to lubricate properly. I have used the other premix that Amsoil sells which is an ashless 2 stroke premix. You can use synthetic oil, just make sure the ash content is low.
