I used Total EO when i am schooling great stuff. That time very free chnage oil every 1000km and filter every 2000km.

IMO is a very good oil and one oil change cost less than one bottle fully syn EO.

If u can affort to change every 1500km or so I guess nothing beat new oil in ur engine every 1500km.

not quite actually, if ur oil is of lower base stock quailty, its possible tht it cant withstand heat as well as those with gd quailty base stock (a 4 stock is veri hot u know). therefore, the molecules may break down easily & turn watery. so which is better? having watery oil inside or having oil which still has its own properties aft long usage? u decide

But have u tried Total EO?

Then how hot is the S4 ?

Then wat kind of oil is suitable for S4?

So using mineral will spoil our engine?

 

I dont u can answer my question my questions? All are based on ur opinion. I dont Eo is easy to break down as EO shearing occured even high end oil and oil do get thinner after some mileage just that fully syn can last longer before thnner out to a danger point.

 

IMO is that if u can change oil often then u r doing a ur engine good as when the oil started to thin out u will change it.

Of course there amny factors like cleaning propertities,anti acid,high temp stabitity and etc.......I am sorry I not an expert in this.

Rock oil is gear oil rite not like engine oil ? anyone can clear my doubt thanks :thumb: Wad's the advantage of gear oil over normal engine oil :confused:

rockoil has a few different oils in the market. IMO, the diff between gear oil & engine oil is tht engine oil has few additional components than gear oil. gear oil is for 2 stroke gear box while engine oil is better used for 4 stroke engines cause of the additional components

Hi All

 

I need some advice on Fully Synthetic Engine Oil.

 

I am going to change engine oil soon, and need to know what the numbers on the engine oil bottle mean. For example : 10W30, 20W50, 15W50, 2T, 4T etc.

 

What brands (Fully Synthetic) or types are recommended for Super 4 VT2 ?

 

 

 

Thanks for your responses.

u buy 4 bottles and used 3.2litres, remaining 0.8litres bring home for next oil change or keep in bike shop if they allow.

remaining engine oil can use to lube chain, oil your cables etc...

2.9L to be exact.

 

Main reason why shops dun bring in by the barrel or drum is becuz ppl will question on the authencity of the oil from the barrel.

 

More over the oil must sell if quickly.

I wonder if unused oil "spoils" though cuz new bottles always come sealed.

 

Well i know of 2 places that sell oil from the drums.

One is pleasure motor @ kallang beside ah boy and the other is Yamaha workshop.

 

Cheers !
