Kawasaki Forums - mis-labeled 2 stroke engine oils

Did you know that oil manufacturers are allowed to label their product as “synthetic” or even “fully synthetic” when it is only partially synthetic? For example, Motorex POWER SYNT 2T is promoted as “Fully synthetic” on their web site but according to their data sheets it has 25-50% group 1 dinosaur oil. How do I know this? I looked up their data and followed the CAS oil number to find the data that reveals it is dinosaur oil, the smokey stuff that has to be used at a lower gas/oil ratio. As far as I know I am the only person who has done a full expose on 2 stroke engine oils. Probably half you people reading this are using similar oils at too high a gas/oil ratio. You should read my expose to get an idea about the oil you are using. Read up on the subject at www.dragonfly75.com/moto/oil.html and if an oil is not listed there then most probably the manufacturer is such a sleazy group of scammers that they don’t make publicly available their data sheets.
