Voyager1: I've seen and read Tejas's stuff and used their experience with sulphated ash levels as part of my research into alternatives. Rotella synthetic meets the criteria. Add to that the shear viscosity capabilities of the Rotella and I'm comfortable with my choice. All I'm doing is sharing my thinking and not making a recommendation for anyone else. The oil issue has become ambiguous since there is no operational testing being done for 2-stroke oils and there is no way to know for sure that any current oils meet the the 2-stroke standard. All I did was take the specifications for the approved oil and find a more readily available alternative that met them. Others may not think that is sufficient. I have no problem with others' choices, we each are making a bet with our choice as to how it will turn out.
