I've always used castrol super 2 stroke oil just because it's cheap and available almost everywhere.
My ratio is 32:1 I've found it to be the best with a lean jet combo second from the top setting.
I've been looking at the Lucas oil 2 stroke oils but have not been able to pick one, they offer these 3.

Two are Semi-synthetic, 2-cycle land & sea oil tc-W3, Semi synthetic 2-cycle oil and lastly synthetic 2-cycle snowmobile oil.
I am leaning towards the full synthetic since it's the only one I can pick up locally where I live in canada for a good price. I looked into other like Royal Purple fully synthetic two cycle oil but it's a order in item and it cost 20 bucks for a 1L bottle!
There is also Castrol Power RS TTS 2T which it supposed to be really good but again not available here in canada sadly in the USA it's a good price at 13-15 of a 1L bottle of fully synthetic.
Right now I am running a mix of synthetic 60 ml 5w-40 and 100 ml of castrol super 2 stroke oil just to see how much better it would run and to help lubricate a bit better.
So far it's running much smoother but I'll just be doing this as an experiment, it reminds me when I used to run 5w-30 full synthetic because I couldn't find 2 cycle oil at the time They were all sold out but that was the very first build I ever did, good times. That engine always ran fairly well too.
Anyways I want to hear about your favorite oils and mixes you use and if you have ever made your own mix of oils or used car oil as a replacement.
Happy motoring!
