    Just curious what other guys and gals are using for oil in their Strikemaster Lite’s 4 cylces. It just seems ridiculous to pay $1.99 for 1.7oz of oil in a bottle labeled strikemaster.

    Are you sure that the 1.7oz for $2 isint their 2-stroke oil. I dont own a strike lite but Im pretty sure thay take much more than 2oz of oil in the crank case… you might have your oils mixed up?

    EDIT…. I stand corrected

    I am positive on the amount I still have the original bottle and just looked at it before posting. I know it does not seem like much, that is why I am curious what others are using. I run synthetics in all my other 4 cycle equipment and was thinking of doing the same in my auger.

    Thanks guys for posting I am going to make the switch I run synthetic in everything else except I use Castrol Edge it was roven to out perform mobil one so I switched, don’t know if it makes much of a difference but I like to protect my motors the best I can.

    Stay on the dry side.
