TW-3 is the moden stuff, don't know the cheepest place yet, still searching.
When you find the stuff, get the price & post again.
Good luck.
 
I use valvoline fully synthetic around £7 a litre and mix it at 30/1

Where do you get the Castrol dude?

Also what's Castrol 575 like? I think thats what its called, maybe completely wrong!!!
 
Ive always used mercury 2 stroke oil and never had a problem with it? I just use it coz it was designed by the engine manfacturer so why would there be anything wrong with it! Apart from as silversurfer says it is f**kin expensive!
