If in doubt, go with the most expensive. I use Shell Adance X 2t. The big boys use Motul 800. Depends how much you want to spend. to run it in you use mineral, one you've got two tanks through it, go synthetic and stay at 50-1 ratio. All else just gunks your motor and drips out the headers and pipe. Run it on 98 RON, you can't go wrong with it. Your looking at $30 to $40 a litre for good oil, but it goes a long way!!

Yep. It's premium pump fuel. almost every servo has it. It is a lot priceier, though, at $1.45 or $1.50 a litre.

motul....

use motul 800... accept no substitute!! it'l look after your motor alot better and it lasts for awhile made up...
when you try your different mixes, try about 30-35 ml of oil to a litre, again it'l look after your motor better, and you can fatten her up... it will be worth it down the line.... a cag motor can last over a year without a rebuild, racing at least every fortnight, like this!! Sometimes you can get 4 litres of motul 800 from outer suburb kart shops for around $90... makes it alot more affordable to look after your little cag!! morty

........

yeah, probably most bike shops will stock it, but nearly every kart shop will stock it.......
actually use 33:1, seems to work well! The harder they rev, the more oil is needed. More oil makes less heat and more HP....... just try a mix & jet size and do a short burst, then do a plug chop, check lap times, etc..... do this over & over and you will achieve the optimum fuel/oil mix - jetting size!! morty

Bestobel is a cator oil and the combo of high octane leaded was fantastic!
