Isn’t food coloring water based? I wouldn’t do that…
Been running Motul 800 for over a decade, never any issues, burns clean and smells even better,I've still got about a gallon of Mobil1 Racing 2T synthetic that's 15 years old, still works fine (and smells great!) YMMV
By the time I get to the gallon of Motul 800 that I mistakenly bought about 5 years ago, that'll probably be 15 years old.
Me, neither. I think it would be like adding water to oil...no mixie!Isn’t food coloring water based? I wouldn’t do that…
You would think the maker would color the 2 stroke oil, wouldn't you?Me, neither. I think it would be like adding water to oil...no mixie!
Oil paint would probably mix with fuel better, but I don't think I'd try that, either.
It's sold for sleds and boats with oil injection, it doesnt need to be colored for that use.You would think the maker would color the 2 stroke oil, wouldn't you?
Ah that makes sense…It's sold for sleds and boats with oil injection, it doesnt need to be colored for that use.
Amsoil interceptor has been used in a lot of dirt bikes without issue other than the color.
If you ask amsoil about it, they'll tell you to use dominator or saber if you're mixing it even tho the interceptor works fine.
The old can oil was worth some coin . Guys with old cars and trucks like to display it in the trunk or bed. I have several cansI had a customer give me a pile of vintage oil, all unopened. 25-35 year old. Ran it in all my 4-stroke equipment without issue.
I'm running the last of 4 gallons of Dominator in my '74 RD350 (that has at least 60 HP) that I bought when I finished the bike in '11. Some of the Saber I run in my paramotor is at least 5 years old. I'm all about stockpiling stuff, so most of what I run is old. To each his own, but I wouldn't put to much thought into a 5 year old 2-stroke oil.

Best before with foods does not mean kill you immediately post this date.I never paid much attention to due dates. Drank old milk brunt old gas. Old oil should not be a problem. No one knows how old oil is to start with. Could be like fine wine or a selling point.
https://www.amsoil.com/p/interceptor-synthetic-2-stroke-oil-ait/Protects advanced two-stroke technology. Use in all two-stroke snowmobiles, motorcycles, ATVs, PWCs and where API TC or JASO FD oils are specified, including Polaris;* BRP/Ski-Doo* (Rotax* E-TEC* engines); Arctic Cat* (C-TEC2* engines); Honda;* Yamaha;* Kawasaki;* Suzuki;* direct-fuel-injected (DFI), electronic-fuel-injected (EFI) & carbureted engines. Use as injection oil or 50:1 premix (2.6 oz. per U.S. gallon of gas).So is it an oil for water-cooled engines, like TCW-3 ... or is it for air-cooled engines? (Or I guess it's supposedly OK for both?)
I always heard that you shouldn't use TCW-3 in air-cooled 2T motors because they run a lot hotter than water-cooled engines, and the oil can carbon up rings, cause scuffing, etc...
I would use it too. You should ask all of these clowns that are worried about an oil with a expired shelf life to just ship all of it to you.I had a customer give me a pile of vintage oil, all unopened. 25-35 year old. Ran it in all my 4-stroke equipment without issue.

I have actually bought some of this off of Amazon, and use it to add some extra color to some of my mix, so I can see it through the plastic gas container. I also bought some pipettes to use to add it in there by the drop. It's super concentrated and only takes one to three drops per container, depending on your desired color.Yeah... my bad on the food coloring. I been slipping up as of late, too many projects on the brain.
And now this!

It's a low ash oil, not a TCW3 oil.So is it an oil for water-cooled engines, like TCW-3 ... or is it for air-cooled engines? (Or I guess it's supposedly OK for both?)
