Thank you grumpy & Rodeobob
wow that was quite an in depth reply & informative too from both of you
my thought was more so the fuel of the day.. when the motor was designed and made..as I said ..just tib bits of thought from limited knowledge
in how best to care for a 2 stroke
(yeah maybe that old saying a little knowledge is a dangerous thing

)
I didnt know of it power boosting action (or had forgotten)
so guess you learn something new every day
on the oil lead thing Rodeobob
I was more thinking of the effect from it no longer being there
seems it doesn't overly factor in...if it did at all, oil mostly does what I was thinking of (lubrication as its purpose...) seems that wasn't its main purpose anyway

and from what you say, if it did it was probably compensated for by later oils formulas
Still regardless
lead its not a good thing to have floating around either so good riddens it seems on more then one count...
Thank you both Cheers:)
time for some more reading
