Go to a motorcyle/go kart speed shop....I'd bet you can do a lot better on the price
than if you're buying off the HS shelf.

Why do you need the oil? Are you spiking your fuel? Brewing your own?

If it's the Klotz your after....only the "Original Techniplate" will mix
with the methanol....all the other Klotz products are for gasoline.

Morgan fuels will sell you their synthetic oil they used to make Coolpower. I bought about 10 gallons of this stuff 4 years ago when I brewed up a rather large batch for myself.

Hello!
The French manufacturer of racing oils for cars and motorcycles, Motul, makes a all synthetic oil called "Micro" made for glow engines .
This oil is very popular over here in Europe and we use 10-15% oil in our fuel.
Motul oil can be found in motorcycle shops worldwide.
