Rudolph I use Moreys -Would be nice if we could get MMO in NZ.
Have never used 2 Stoke oil -did read In Harold Sharon's Veteran car book that you shouldn't but can't remember the reasoning -although I do remember he said we shouldn't fight the addition of ethanol to gas - However he was talking about very early cars with very low compression and generally minimal (if any) rubber parts in contact with fuel Karl
