2 Stroke Oil
I have read at other sites (not trusted) that putting 2 stroke oil in with as a fuel additive will increase fuel milage and help with fuel pump life. Any comments????

Some of us do it on this site (3rd gen). I use a ashless 2 stroke mixture oil TCW3. Doesn't help the fuel economy but it does help lube the pump and injectors.

Just about anything added to the fuel is going to be an improvement to what they're giving us these days.

I've been doing this for 6 months with no increase in mpg. I buy a gal. at a time from wallyworld and add about 4oz each tank.
