I get this Castrol thing for £4/ltr+vat but I have asked Valovoline (sorry no Penzoil same as Shell this one) and they do it for £3/ltr+vat but waiting confirmation.

Yeah but it's only Quicksilver Opti going in my engine Manos and TCW3 isn't Opti standard. How much can you get Opti for?

It's made by Quicksilver and it's called Optimax 2 stroke oil. I am only interested in that oil.

Why if a suitable cheaper alternative can be found?

cos my Opti engines cost me over 20k and are still under warranty. I aint running the risk of damaging the engine cos some bloke on a forum reckons there is no need to buy the branded stuff. If 5 pounds a litre is the cost I have to pay for the glorious performance of an Opti then so be it!

My engines = My choice

Brian Ashby are you interested in buying some opti in bulk

Rogue I know is called Optimax but what is the type i.e TC-W3 or TC-W3S? This is what one wants to find the exact alternative

I know this question has nothing to do with the oil topic but I was just wondering if any one knows where I can find SIKAFLEX in the UK? Have looked at B&Q but they do not seem to have it. Any where else?
