Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Silkolene Comp 2 is a tank mix oil, meaning it must be accurately pre-mixed with gasoline before being added to the fuel tank. Always follow the motorcycle manufacturer's recommended fuel-to-oil ratio. Typical ratios range from 32:1 to 50:1 (gasoline:oil), but refer to your specific vehicle's manual for the precise requirement.
- Ensure you are using fresh, high-quality gasoline.
- Measure the correct amount of Silkolene Comp 2 oil using a measuring container.
- Add the oil to the gasoline in a separate, clean container or in the motorcycle's fuel tank first, then add the gasoline.
- Shake the mixture thoroughly to ensure complete and uniform blending.
- Pour the pre-mixed fuel into your motorcycle's fuel tank.
Compatibility:
- Engine Type: Specifically designed for air-cooled and liquid-cooled 2-stroke gasoline engines.
- Application: Ideal for competition off-road motorcycles (motocross, enduro, trials).
- NOT Compatible: This oil is NOT suitable for automatic oil injection systems unless specifically approved by the oil manufacturer and motorcycle manufacturer for such use. It is also NOT compatible with 4-stroke engines or diesel engines.
Care & Storage:
- Store the oil in its original container in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Keep the container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent contamination and evaporation.
- Avoid prolonged storage of pre-mixed fuel; it is best to mix only what you will use in the short term.
