Racing Outboard Motor Oil

Two cycle oil for high-performance racing motors needs to contain a heavier synthetic base than most to protect the pistons and bearing that are under more strain from the rigors of racing.  High performance two cycle motors can include stock or modified motors, including snowmobiles, personal watercraft, Moto X motorcycles, ATVs, go-carts and certain outboard motors. 

Performance motor oils need to reduce friction and burn clean, because high performance two cycle motors run hotter than recreational outboard motors.   The properties of appropriate performance motor oil will also provide some protection against wearing of essential engine components.

What Kind of Oil Does a Snowmobile Use? 

Yamalube 2s oil has a wide viscosity range and special detergents appropriate for extreme temperatures. 

The properties of Yamalube 2s oil can power motorcycles, ATVs, scooters, and golf carts, but are particularly recommended for snowmobiles with 2-stroke engines.

Evinrude E-Tec“Bess Cary loved ice cream. One day, during a picnic on an island in a Wisconsin lake, Cary asked fiance Ole Evinrude if he would row back to shore to get her a dish.
Sweat poured down his face as he raced to get the ice cream back to his dear Bess before it melted under the hot summer sun. That was when Evinrude thought to himself, “There has to be a better way.”"

And Evinrude outboard 2 cycle motors were born, and with them a long history of reliability and non-stop innovation.  In the market of 2 cycle outboard engine oil Evinrude continues to lead with both its Evinrude XD 50 and XD 100 oil types for all kinds of 2 cycle engines.  See for yourself how to increase your outboard motor’s performance with near half-off oil prices at domo-online!

All boaters participate in the ecosystem, a system created by the interaction of a community of organisms with their environment. We are not separate from nature, but a part of it. As boaters, we cannot ignore the effect we have on the environment. The waters that we enjoy may be impacted by our actions. Every boater has a responsibility to learn and use environmentally safe boating practices and products (like Evinrude XD 50 Motor Oil) that will protect the waters for the future.

As a watercraft rider, you are considered a boater. Watercraft are defined as Class A inboard boats by the U.S. Coast Guard and are required to follow most boating regulations.

Author: Bill, 02 13th, 2008

The newly announced Yamaha FX Nytro XTX crossover snowmobile looks fantastic.  It’s 130 horsepower –1049cc — three cylinder engine has enough power to climb everything but the trees along the trail.  Sorry, it doesn’t use Yamalube 2S oil —it’s a four stroke engine.
