2 stroke oil is NOT meant/designed to be used to protect for storage. It is designed to burn. Im not sure about you guys down south, but up here in the north fogging is not just a good idea, it is completely mandatory. You do not want to ruin your powerhead and bearings. Please do not promote not fogging our motors, it only takes seconds. I personally would like to see my grandkids and their grandkids enjoying these motors like we do. Just because a motor has ran that was not fogged, that does not mean that it could not have been better preserved had it been properly protected.
Just my 2 cents. I feel that recommending not fogging motors is akin to recommending 100:1 fuel/oil mixtures. I feel as a club we need to set out to preserve these motors for others, not just for ourselves.
