Quote from: richard cashalso, how do people apply this. Im guessing at the petrol station but before or after the fuels gone in.

Before, so the petrol getting into the tank mixes better with the oil simply due to its movement.

Just arrived here from a synth/mineral debate..At least I now know why WGT dont like synthetics in the sump!
 
Pre-mix seems like a good insurance plan for my new engine, I\'m going to start at the next fill-up.
 
Could the choice of mixing oil be all be down to how nice it smells and how economical it is?
Any recommendations?

Just a small concern..

If you run pre-mix only, and your car has fuel injection, then there is no oil being fed in when you coast, (in gear , on overrun) with no throttle.

I dont think many people turn on the fuel cut option anyway Martin certainly i don\'t. You are only on overrun for a short time so any residual oil will carry on lubricating, i\'m not sure how long a motor will run for without the oil but none of the high power drag cars run any oil at all so it can\'t be that big an issue for the length of time your talking about. Unless you\'ve a 10 mile down hill section hidden down your way i don\'t know about.:D
