Yes I used it in both air and water cooled 2 strokes. Mixed at 40:1. I would sell them on eBay. Collectors like old unopened bottles....especially if it's in CANS. I sold a can a couple years back for over $50 bucks.

Is this the same as a non-detergent oil..I use a NON DETERGENT 30w in the crank case of my 1965 Honda .
 
Ha....sweet bike!!! I think this is only for 2 stroke to be used in combustion.....so mixed with the fuel.....in reality, it is darn good oil....I used it for years in snowmobiles, outboards, and chain saws. I could probably find a bottle or two around here, or up at the Canada shacks. Really, wonder if detergent should be used in that old Honda? I recommend non detergent in things like air compressors and other equipment without combustion....say for instance gear boxes, diesel fuel pumps (using their own oil bathed rotating assembly), manual transmissions operated in very cold temperatures where 80/90 would be too heavy. Does the Honda have the same oil for crankcase as well as gearbox? Then we might stick with non detergent, yes.

Thanks. Guess I can’t really use it. Probably collect dust for now
 
Right....can't speak for shelf life, but if you can still shake it up and see clear color and no separation, then it's probably still safe to use. Years back....in the 40's and 50's...2 stroke oil hadn't been commercially produced. 4 stroke oil was all we had to mix in our outboards....at 16:1........yuck! I kept more spark plugs in my tackle box, than BAIT.
