How many miles do you get from one litre of 2 stroke oil Kev?

My DT gets about 240 - 260 miles for one litre,,,,,,this is from memory, i havent checked them figures in ages.

and going (roughly) on Kev's firures,,,,,, he gets about the same.

I guess it depends on how much fuel you are using. At 33:1 ratio you should need about 138ml to a gallon so 345ml equates to about two and a half gallons of fuel.

when i had my old mtx 125 way back then , i topped my oil tank up and forget about it for years.

but this thing drinks it for fun. im putting 350ml but varying the amount of fuel between 10 and 14 ltr ..

Which 2 stroke oil do you use in your DT400/250 MX?

Is the synthetic worth using / of any benefit (such as Halfrauds - http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_221521_langId_-1_categoryId_165507#tab1)?
