How to distinguish qualified 2T oil from fake 2T oil?
Due to the large emissions of two-stroke motorcycles, there is a trend of being replaced by 4-stroke motorcycles in the market.
In order to reduce environmental pollution, existing two-stroke motorcycles have strict requirements on the 2T oil they use. The ideal 2T oil is also called environmentally friendly. 2T oil is semi-synthetic or pure synthetic oil. These oils are generally added More than 20% polyisobutylene synthetic oil, high cost but good smoke suppression effect. The following are several detection methods for your reference.
Smell
Environmentally friendly 2T oil is generally added with kerosene as a thinner. If there is no kerosene smell, it is definitely not environmentally friendly oil.
Conventional indicators for detecting oil
The viscosity index of 2T oil added with PIB is generally greater than 100. If the viscosity index is low, some even less than 50, it must be a fake oil directly injected into a non-standard oil.
Flash point
The flash point of 2T oil added with diluent is generally lower than 200℃, if the flash point is higher than 200℃, it is definitely not environmentally friendly oil
Pour point
The pour point of environmentally friendly 2T oil is low because it contains diluent. If the pour point is only 5-10℃, or even above 0℃, it must be fake oil
