Dear Andy,
here is Aco again. I came from holiday 40 days ago, but I did not work on my bike a lot, I had very little free-time. Now, here is why I am writting to you: I do not know which motor-oil is best to use? When I was doing the general-repairing of the engine, one mechaniker told me that the best is fully syntetic oil, and that the mineral oil is very bad for engine. I bought "ESSO 2T" 100% syntetic, and I used up 1l of it (with 3% concentration in the fuel). But, in the midletime, one other byker told me a oposyte story - that for those older machines mineral oil is the best. Here is what has been written on the bike (on the fuel-tanker):

1 : 40

(symbol for gasoline)
SPECIAL BA 90

(symbol for oil)
SAE 30-40
OA M 2T
CASTROL TWO STROKE
CASTROL SUPER T
CASTROL TTS
Now, of all of these only "CASTROL TTS" I can find in here, in one specialised shop, and it is mineral-oil.
Do you know, should I continue with using "ESSO 2T", or it is better to switch on that "CASTROL TTS"?
My e-mail address is: mucnica@nspoint.net Regards, Aco
