2-Cycle Oils VOA Analysis

[SubieRubyRoo]

They increase burn time by burning as much fuel as possible before the exhaust port opens. Burning as much fuel as possible means less unburnt fuel going out the exhaust port and leaving residues.

Is anything like this used in race fuels or 4-stroke fuels?

@Rollins Why is a 5W30 engine oil (557224) even listed??

English is the preferred language for BITOG.

The guy used the opportunity to test the passenger car Shell Helix he uses for his own vehicle along with a Yamalube 2 imported and made in the Arab Amirates vs another Yamalube 2 sold by the official Yamaha Importer (turned identical despite the slight difference in labels).
The 2M is TC-W3-certified.

Also notice that some (but not all) later 2-cycle fluids have a 100°C viscosity hanging around 7.0 cSt, versus the earlier 10.0 cSt oils.

The samples arrive at ALS on Monday; so I'd expect mid week to have the results.

2 Stroke VOA are officially in process!

 

[jtwrace]

Just a quick update. ALS has never tested 5 of the 6 oils sent in. I'm just waiting for them to add the names to their database so they can release the reports. The guy that does this has been out of office this week. They say next week for sure.

I was thinking yesterday about the 2-stroke analysis and what's going on with them.
Thanks!

Are you by chance testing Amsoil Sabre or Valvoline TCW-3?
