2 stroke oil for green laning
Permalink  

Got three bottles from some scooter performance site, holds enough for 12 litres worth and are marked off in various mix ratio's. If I can find site again I'll post it up.

Hi guys

Not been out on the local lanes yet, the only thing stopping me now is what to carry 2 stroke oil in for fuel fill ups. Years ago, Putoline used to do a tube of oil marked off in 5cc I believe, but it's not available anymore.

Any ideas please

You could use a baby bottle as they are tough and have graduation marks on the side.
They come in various shapes & sizes so just find one small and fits in your pack well.

My weapon of choice is an old Reggae Reggae squeezy sauce bottle. Take off the label. I used a stanley knife blade to mark the increments for 40:1 I measured these with an old kiddies medicine syringe using water.
Works an absolute treat.
The only down side now is being able to buy Comp 2 oil. It seems Silkolene are moving towards the newer generation bikes with autolube. I just want the original stuff. Used the last of mine today.

 R40 in the CCM Andy (proper race bike) biggrin. The Husky was R30 at 25:1 back in 78. Things have moved on with 2T oil since then. Not only that.... they stopped making R30 a few years ago.
