Read & been told that Torco will substantially reduce engine lifespan due to insufficient castor oil content. Any long term user feedback on this?

No problems at all with this kinda of fuel about reducing the lifespan of my nitro engine I will even say that this is one of the best fuels out there.

Hello there! I'm sorry to say (or is it good?) that we haven't had the Filter in that long to have to Clean it yet? I believe, but am not sure, that K&N; have their own type of Oil to Re-oil? Not for sure though? Sorry I couldn't be more help. Really like the Filter though! Seems to really help in the Midrange of the Power-band. Good luck! :0)

Any good quality 2-stroke pre-mix oil is fine to use. You don't have to pay extra for the Husqvarna label on the oil, they don't make it anyway. It's re-badged

I've been using Slick 50 since 1978 on every car i've had, and it never has failed to make my engine's perform better and quieter. I even used it on my riding tractor mower, with a Briggs & Statton 8 hp motor, that was 15 years old, and it ran faster and quieter than when it was brand new. Ted Smith, Myrtle Beach, SC

It contains 14 percent oil content, you can go to torconitro.com and order a custom blend if needed

I can't provide a technical answer to this question. You might want to consult the site, www.techron.com, for information provided by the company's fuel engineering staff. Personally, I use only this one product for preventative maintenance reasons in my own vehicles to avoid future problems.

For the money, if you use Torco and go by their mixing chart you may be surprised by the results. I've been using Torco products for over 20 years and never been disappointed. Their octane boost is the best and costs no more than Lucas if you stick to the chart ratio!

It's being so long since I bought it....I usually buy detergent oil but one thing to remember is you can't use this oil an an engine with less than 10,000 miles. The rings will not seat. Otherwise, it's good oil and you may have an increase in horsepower too.. Call Royal purple to be sure, don't go buy what people say. It just a simple phone call. ernie

I've used it for over 7,000 miles in my FJR 1300 with a wet clutch. An excellent product, improved shifting,quieter and easier revving .I definitely recommend this oil.

WD40 is not a good solution for any mechanical parts as it is NOT a lubricant. It will eventually gum up and cause even more issues. Use a good 3 in 1 oil and you'll be golden.

You can buy the XADO 1 Stage Maximum atomic metal conditioner and just do your normal oil changes. I use synthetic so I only change my oil every 10,000 miles.

Modern gasoline will form a varnish sludge in the carb if you don't drain it in some way and let it sit a long time.Applies to any gasoline engine.If you use it weekly it will be fine. if you let it sit 6 months you'll probably have problems with the carb. Its hard to predict where in between there is the maximum you can let it sit with gas in the carb.Just like the common lawn mower engines.

Slick 50 will likely get "consumed" just like regular oil. If your truck has a consumption issue, NO additive will help in any meaningful way nor will it fix the "problem". Take it to a good mechanic and find out WHY it is "consuming" oil, and if your truck is worth it, have it repaired. hth.Stay happy,HiP

Hi James.I'm using a fuel with 20% nitro and 10% oil, that has worked for me for this car.Important; You need to tune the engine, because if you run the car at full speed immediately out of the box, you can damage the motor.Regards

Yes. Owner's manual specifically states that ethanol gasoline will reduce engine life. Use of ethanol gas will void the 7 year warranty.

I am not sure. I used Amsoil Synthetic MOTOROLA Oil In My Primary. Used shock proof in transmission only. Love it in the tyranny!

I have never came across this issue. However I just used synthetic oil in my engine so I guess I will find out.However oil is oil. This does all liquids and I have used it on my lawnmower ride on and boat and Golf Cart. Which I switched over to synthetic.
