So clone what say you of my mix I use,,,, 75% napa synth or royal purple and 25% Lucas oil treatment?,,, wasting my time? It just seems to work, and after 10,000 miles on a ducati s4 916 engine teardown no noticeable wear of any kind anywhere ( and this engine was not babied ) seems to work for you, so go with it. Currently I would recommend for break in either Dino High ZInc, Phosphorus, Sulfur break in oil from Gibbs or Maxima. I would move to Synth, Maxima once broke in. Not counting out Mobil 1

Great link, LUKE. That video on burning oil as fuel in a diesel engine is TOTALLY relevant in this discussion about engine oil in gasoline scooters. Please tell me more about your assessment that oil is oil. I'd love to hear how you came to that conclusion. Perhaps that's why I hear so much about your scooter never running. You might want to try putting gas in the fuel tank, not vegetable oil. If you PM me your address, I'd be happy to send you some crayons and dinosaur toys to keep you busy while the rest of us are doing big boy stuff here on the forum.

Oh, yeah. I should have looked. I don't know I said Richland. I knew it was "Something-Land".
Oh , and Luke. If we all block you all you'll be doing is yelling in the dark but no one will hear you. Clean up your act.
