    We are already aware that friction causes heat. Lubricating oil reduces friction substantially and helps dissapate and "transfer" heat, which in turn reduces wear on moving metal to metal contact surfaces.
    Oil is a good thing .
    In the case of our 2 strokes…oil in a reasonable quantity
    What’s a reasonable amount,quantity and ratio? That’s what this topic is about.
