2-CYCLE OIL...What Type?

I've been using Power Service Diesel Kleen in my tank, but decided to try 2- cycle oil in my next tank full of fuel. Today, I was at Walmart looking for some and the only kind that comes in a large container is the Super Tech Outboard 2-Cycle TC-W3 Engine Oil. Is this what y'all are using? Just want to make sure before I buy it.

Yep, that's the one.

How much do we put in a tank of fuel? I'm planning on putting something in before my trip up to the 4x4 Jamboree Nationals in Indianapolis this weekend

I saw on this site where alot of guys are putting one ounce per gallon, but I just had to find out what kind. I put 25 gallons of fuel in my tank and I'm gonna pour in 16 ounces of the 2 cycle and 8 ounces of power service.

I have been running Pennzoil TCW3, mainly because it has been on sale, around 3 dollars a quart. Working good so far.

So what does this do if you add it to your fuel? I run a soy diesel from the local co-op. Ran 4 or 5 tanks of it and no problems. Is it just like pouring in some lucas oil injector cleaner in a gasser?

I am using about .5 to .75 oz. per gallon of the Super Tech. Been using it since last fall. My injectors are running much quieter! Had one that sounded like a loose valve and now I have to listen hard to hear it at all.
