    What brand and weight oil are you using in the tranny of a 250/300 2-stroke?

    when I had a little shop back in the 80s, I stocked a lot of Lubridyne products. I had a case of that left over and I'm just down to my last bottle of Lubridyne 80wt, then I'll probably use Bel Ray Gear Saver.

    Nerd alert here: I am using Agip City 4T 10W40. It's actually marketed as a scooter oil. My transmission failed, but it wasn't due to my oil choice.

    Rotella synthetic works fine as well. No clutch slippage. I like Amsoil and use that when i can find it EZ. Spectro Gear Saver has always been my top choice for transmissions that don't shift EZ. Seems like good stuff. On a 2 stoke i feel you can run any good oil. it does not get real hot and you should be changing it a lot anyway because of clutch material contamination.

    I like Rock Oil products and used to carry them in my shop, but I can't find them in the USA anymore.

    Northland Superline 15w-40 non synthetic. I have also used Northland 10w-30, 10w-40 and 20w-50 MXP racing oil. Just depends upon the weather and what I have laying around.
