It is not intended for ANY engine used on water. TCW-3 is certified biodegradable, and required for operation in U.S. waters. Why POISON our water by running anything else??

There is a difference between marine 2 stroke oil (water cooled) and the kind used in air cooled 2 strokes. It has to do with the amount of sulfur and lubrication. Air cooled runs much hotter than water cooled.

Use the right product and we won't have to listen to any whining after an engine blows up. :smile:

I used to run amsoil interceptor in my squarenose with a brand new engine in it. When I tore the motor down there was zero hard carbon but mass abouts of thick sludge in the pipe & waterbox after less than a season. My experience is non tcw3 oils is they don't like wet exhaust.

I'm guessing that TCW3 is an American certification. Swedes wouldn't give a rat's ass about it.

You will find that most any oil will sludge up in the pipe.

The only clean pipes I have seen were run on MS109 and Benol. Must be the MS109 cuz my pipe looks like a chit in it using Benol.
