I've determined that I need to use race gas in the 310 this time around, but I have a few questions for those that are familiar.

First off, what is the best to use in a two stroke?

Second, how much for a 5 gallon drum of it?

And third, not really related, but there is a year old bottle of Klotz Synthetic oil in my garage and I don't know if it deteriorates or what...? Should I use it? The seal was broken but only a very small amount was actually used. It's nearly full.

Thanks for all replies!

I'll comment on the oil, it will be perfectly fine to use even if it's a couple years old.

Racegas is usually about $6-7 a gallon so it should be $30-35 for 5 gallons. It's called..... well i forget but it was something 12... cam12?

cam 2 is what you are trying to get out. i have ran it in my 450R and my hybrid. when i had a LT250R , i ran cam 2 and klotz Benol and the smell was amazing.

Can you get that Cam 2 at VP? I called them up this morning and the guy told me that it was 70 bucks for a 5 gallon drum of whatever he reccomended. U4-2 he said.

I wouldn't mind as much paying 6-7 bucks, but it will be snowing real hard in hell before I pay 15 bucks for a gallon of anything.

If I can't get it for at the very most under ten bucks a gallon, theres a Sunoco down town that sells 98 octane (?) from a pump for like a buck more a gallon than premium.

By the way, thanks for all the help so far everyone.

there is a marathon by me that sells some stuff that called Velocity, its 100 octane and its 6.99 a gallon. works well. but 70 bux for 5 gallons is a rip off.

I dont know a whole lot about race fuel but im pretty sure u4-2 is VP's oxygenated race fuel which is probably why its so expensive. I think it gets u like 1-2% gain in hp.

UHHH, Idk where exactly they sell it but basically you can get it at those gas stations with a million pumps tho. I had to get it for my rm250 and i had to go for a half hour drive. I think they tell you where to get it at their site. www.cam2.com and they might sell it at the pump and bottled.

Call your local fuel/oil distributor. Mine sells it right out of the pump, 110 leaded, brand unknown.
