Could this be the WRONG engine oil?

Post by nortstudio »

I'm not trying to start the never ending oil debate - but the PO made a point of including 3 quarts of oil with the purchase. I thought it was a nice touch, until I just opened the bag and realized this was what he gave me - and I assume is in the engine now??? Ever heard of this stuff?

I was thinking I better get some fresh stuff in there anyway, but now this has me a bit nervous to ride it as is....

Engine oil, most definitely.






For a lawnmower or chainsaw. Kidding, I am not.

That's what I thought! Who the hell would put this in a moto engine. This might top my PO stories.
