you can use a variety with no problems
first number can range from 0 to 15 (cold viscosity - dont reccommend 0 if you live where it snows)
second number can range from 20 to 40 (50 if you have a turbo. This is the viscosity when its hot)
W stands for winter
Any oil that falls within that category will be fine

Yeah, Sohn OMP adaptor.
You can use the washer fluid tank if you live down south and keep your car clean.
Unfortunately I live up north and drive my car in the winter so I needed two smaller washer fluid bottles. One for washer fluid, the other for 2stroke oil.

NYC- I don't think he was refering to the old seal eating issues, but rather it has been suggestedd that mobil one does not mix well with gas when injected... This comes from a conversation RG had at 7stock. I use 5-30 Royal Purple and love it. I will be using 10-30 or 40 this summer to see how it does.

but Im thinking, Mobil 1 is probably one of the leading Synthetic oil in the world, and A LOT OF other companies copy their additives ... so if Mobil 1 does not work, nothing else will work I mean really.
and it pass SM Grade. So Mobil 1 is good in my book.
Reason I dont use Mobil 1 is ... they're expensive as *O#$R)#@$*)#@*$* and with Shell selling their Full Synthetic Oil @ about 2.6 per quart after MIR. I dont see any reason to go for Mobil 1. (I still love RP tho)
