    I'm not convinced good brand names makes all that much difference, but just to be safe, I try and always use this Putoline stuff. This pack lasts me months.

        @vtrn_raptor I use Silkolene Comp 2 as well, I find they make really good products. Remember oil is the life blood of an engine, it contributes to reducing wear on moving parts by decreasing friction, as well as helping to lower temperatures. I would always buy good quality oil, in order to increase the durability of an engine.

                            @zrako I guess what ever works but if my piston and crank last to when they are supposed to is the oil still shit? And not only that I'm running cheap oil I can't afford any better but how many of you have run the best and blew your top ends I haven't blew one and I run cheap stuff

                              @zrako your probably right in fact, it's probably more important in these smaller engines to use good 2 stroke ye we use to use Stihl chain and 2 stroke oil for the good saw other stuff just got any cheap engine and 2 stroke oil that's normally in garages ie carlube and shite

                                  @declan it's kind of like don't judge a book by its cover If the oil is doing what it's supposed to how can you hate on it but of course if I had a real expensive or high performance 2 stroke I'd run the best just for piece of mind

                                    and I hope you don't have any problems too but I don't think the difference will be that noticeable but at the same time hell ye i can feel a difference in fuel stations not as much with this bike tho but I will say in a Stihl or chain saw you put in Tessco fuel it feels like its gonna seize same as my old rs on asda at the end of the day its cheap for a reason get what you pay for

                                        @declan the main difference is probably just what they can put on the bottle rating and quality control sh!t so it's each to their own if I had an off road pitbike or something I wouldn't care what the f!ck went in it but if I'm on a busy dual carriageway I would like to know I have done what I can to not give my self a fucked up day

                                          Carlube is a little to pricey for me also.

                                          Oil is oil.

                                          Keep it real
