This might be ok in string trimmers and chainsaws but I wouldn't recommend it in anything performance oriented for a couple reasons. For one because the oil displaces fuel running a leaner oil/fuel ratio will richen your air/fuel ratio. That's easily overcome by rejetting but because two strokes only run 1 or 2 piston rings they rely on some oil to form a good seal. Get too lean and you will lose compression.
Oh yeah, I've always run Valvoline in all my rigs. I've been interested in the Rotella since buying a diesel but haven't worked up the nerve to switch from my tried and true yet.
