I know, I know. The thing needs rings, valve guides, seals or all three. But I cant afford any major repairs right now.
It's a kawasaki Mojave 250cc 4-stroke. Needs Jaso-Ma oil.
What I have noticed. With Motul 10w-40 synthetic it uses 1/2 qt in 60 miles.
Same with Mobil one motorcycle oil.
With Amsoil 10w-40 Syn motorcycle oil it only uses 8-12 oz in 100 miles.
Should I try 20w-50? Do ya'll think it would slow the consumption some?
What about dino? I have some regular Valvoline 20w-50 car oil which has little or no wet clutch killing Moly.
Or just straight weight oil? Sae40? Would a straight weight last longer before it gets burned?
The recomended oils are 5w-30 10w-40 20w-40 and 20w-50.
I live in the desert so I'm not concerned with how well the oil flows at -44 deg.
