Default Oil for Solo 2350

To all you Solo 2350 owners -

What make/brand 2 cycle oil do you mix with your 100LL gas?

Thanks in advance -

Lou

Yamalube 2R. Easily bought in motorcycle/snowmobile shops. It suspends indefinitely in 100LL. I can no longer remember the post link, but do vividly recall the photograph of results after 2 years on the shelf. Several motor oils were mixed with fuel in clear glass jars. The yamalube 2R remained suspended while the others did not. I've been using it for the past seven+ years in my self launching Ventus with a solo engine. Never a problem. I never worry about using a mixture of this oil and 100LL even if it has been in storage for quite a while. I wouldn't use anything else.

This is what I have used for the past 15 years in my Ventus cT, 4oz
per gal.
PENNZOIL® 2-CYCLE AIR-COOLED ENGINE OIL
http://oilstore.stores.yahoo.net/pe2cyforairc.html

Fuel is standard 100LL avgas.

I also add 2 oz per gal of SeaFoam Motor Treatment (injector cleaner).
Check Amazon or any auto parts store. Not sure it does any good, but
I've also used this for so many years I don't see any reason to quit.

Bob

Castrol Act-Evo, which is recommended by Solo for the 2350.
