" I have a old motor that the previous owner used Opti-2 two stroke oil, it's a 1955 25 HP. Johnson. He said he had been using the oil for about two seasons. I ran about eight to ten 5 gal tanks this summer,and I wanted to know if anybody has used it for any length of time. Does anybody know if this kind of oil has any long term affects on this old motor,the manufacturer recomends you mix the oil at 100/1. Thanking you in advance. "

I didn't trust the Auto-mix, so I dismantled it totally and pre-mmix at 50:1. My $.02 worth.
