a7bas Posted January 19, 2015 Report Share Posted January 19, 2015 Has anyone tried this oil yet? Does it do anything special other than smell of strawberry? And what was the idea of it? Cheers team!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozz Posted January 19, 2015 Report Share Posted January 19, 2015 Yep, it tastes of strawberries too! It's also bright blue, so it's easy to see if you've added it to your fuel. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_earle Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 It does separate very quickly if left in the carb for a couple of weeks. It seems very thick compared to other 2 stroke oils. I got some as the dealer run out of Ipone that I was using before. I will be going back to Ipone when I run out of this Putoline stuff, I don't like it at all. I could leave my bike for a month with the Ipone in and when the carb is stripped still looks good in the float bowl. This Putoline stuff goes like treacle. Not a major issue at the moment as I strip and clean carb and airboxes in the wet weather but when summer comes I don't strip carb every ride. The Putoline doesn't smell too much when running so it does have a plus point, The Ipone stinks really strong of strawberry when running. I also feel the bike doesn't run as clean on the Putoline (80:1). That's just my opinion, There will be a few who swear by it, I'm just too fussy with the fueling on my bikes, I don't see Putoline causing any major issues, Both my bikes do run on it but I can't wait to get back to some better stuff, I can't bear to waste stuff, Luckily I'm down to 1/3 left so time to get some Ipone again, Happy days!!!

huski Posted January 21, 2015 Report Share Posted January 21, 2015 I haven't found it to be better or worse than any of the other good 2t oils ,it does smell a bit sickly though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
