Message: [QUOTE="Homer88, post: 215757, member: 23654"] Hi there. Just a thought. If the purpose of a 2T oil is to lubricate the internals, why would anyone want an oil with a low flash point? Ie. Mobil MX2T 170F I hear castor oil protects very well (Maxima Castor 927 440F) but burns "dirty". I assume that a low flash point oil will burn off completely and a high flash point oil will not burn off. (kind of stupid...) Does the 2T oil gets burn up at totally along with the gasoline? Or only the gasoline burns off and the 2T oil is discharged via the exhaust port? So does it mean lower flash point equals less protection/better burning and a high flash point oil equals better protection/dirtier burning???? PS. How does a castor oil smells??? [/QUOTE]
