TRI-EX2 TC-W3 2-Cycle Oil with Friction Reducing Ceramic Coating for Pre-Mix and Direct Injection 2-Stroke Engines - 1 Quart

The Premium Plus 2 Cycle Oil with Ceramic Coating has drawn mixed responses from Consumers with a focus on performance. Users in aviation and motorcycling have shared varied experiences from their applications. One reviewer, who uses the oil in their Rotax 503UL, praises the product for keeping their engine running smoothly after 60 hours of use, reporting good conditions of the spark plugs and cylinders. This user, however, noted some smoke during cold starts but found it dissipated upon reaching operating temperatures. In contrast, a motorcycle enthusiast using the oil in a 2005 KX125 had a significantly less favorable experience. Despite initially enjoying good performance, after 16.2 hours, they experienced severe carbon/ceramic buildup in the engine, particularly around the piston and power valves. This accumulation affected the performance negatively, leading to a notable drop in power. The review highlights the challenges faced when cleaning the affected areas, due to the oil's ceramic component, leaving a tough residue that required extensive effort to remove. Other lighter comments reflected positive traits, such as reduced smoke emissions and improved starting capabilities across various two-stroke applications, indicating that some users do achieve a clean burn and effective mixing with fuel. Interestingly, while many appreciate the oil's ability to maintain engine cleanliness and good starting performance, the significant buildup issues reported cannot be overlooked, raising concerns over its suitability for certain applications. **
