How to choose oil for a 2-stroke engine?

Two-stroke engines (2T) are the heart of your garden equipment, scooters, and portable tools. They are valued for their compactness, high power, and ability to operate at any angle. However, due to their special lubrication system, these engines are critically dependent on the quality and correct selection of oil.

In the new issue of YUKOIL Academy, our expert Dmytro Bobyr will delve into the nuances of operating 2T equipment and present a range of specialized 2T oils.

Expert advice:

  • Labeling: All of our 2-stroke oils have a characteristic red color. This makes it easy to check for the presence of oil in the finished fuel mixture.
  • Proportions: Unless otherwise specified by your equipment manufacturer, the typical mixing ratio is 1:50 (100 ml of oil to 5 L of gasoline).
  • Mixture freshness: It is not recommended to prepare fuel mixture in advance for a long time; it is better to use a freshly prepared one.

The products have official approvals from the Japanese organization JASO, confirming compliance with the highest global quality standards and making them a beneficial alternative to well-known global brands.
