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

[up.yours]

about 75/110 miles on 350ml if that helps newman..

Looks ok to me Kev, and meets all the spec's

As its racing oil (so they say) thats even better

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.

hey pat , how ya doing pal.

i'm going to order some i think. it's much cheaper than this silky im buying .

[DirtyDT]

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 ..

[DirtyDT]

Tis a twin. And the tank sizes may be different. There are about 4.6ltrs to a gallon so about right.

[DirtyDT]

And MPG will be different.

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)?

[blackhat250]

Hi ukdt" That halfrauds Fully synth is real good, my mate Andre had his barrel off en-route to france. and i touched the piston , and it had a real good feel. greazy kinda, . hes now in the south of France , so it works well. cheap too.

[up.yours]
