I have just bought a dt125r 1999 model. I'm mixing my own fuel. Can I put the same oil in my engine as I'm putting in my fuel tank?

@shanedalton no you most certainly can not. Use 2 stroke oil to mix with the petrol and make sure that it's compatible for premix as some are specifically designed for autolube/oil injection pump only and they won't break down and mix properly. If in doubt as to the ratio use an online premix calculater. As for the engine/gearbox use either silkolene or putoline light gear oil. It's all very critical as if you get it wrong you'll be looking for an engine rebuild very soon.

@markus-w Thank-you much appreciated. It has been 30 years since I had one!
