This is a potentially stupid question, but what the heck...

Is ANY oil appropriate for use with a 2-cycle? Can I get any synthetic
oil,
or does it have to me made especially for 2-cycles?

Thanks,
TT

It needs to be two cycle oil. Check Walmart for Pennzoil - I saw they had
Penn. full synthetic two cycle oil for about $19 a gallon. The synthetic
blend is quite a bit less.

Yes, a synthetic will reduce smoke.

Even switching to the Pennzoil synthetic blend (9.99 at Wally World)
will
reduce smoke a bit.

I have a 15hp 2-cycle engine, and I currently use Quicksilver
Premium
oil.
I've heard rumor that there is an oil that produces less smoke.
Does
anyone
have any experience with this?

Thanks,

I've heard that synthetic 2 stroke oil will reduce smoke. I haven't
tried
it yet, though.
