2 stroke oil online supplier?

[Max...]

Anyone have any suggestions for good prices mail order for typical small amounts? My local chandlers are a bunch of barstewards and most people I can find want silly carriage charges to suplly a small bottle or two.

To broarden this, probably an old chestnut but any issues with going non-big-branded, ie the following as long as it meets TC W3?:

TC - W3 Two 2 Stroke Marine Oil Outboard Engine 5 ltr | eBay

How about this deal with free post from Pacer Marine who were good on service with my carb kit.

2 L Two 2 Stroke Marine Oil Outboard Engine Quicksilver TCW 3 Suzuki Outboard | eBay

That's enough oil (at the 80:1 I use) to add to almost £180 of unleaded so for £17.09 good value to me. By chance I had it in watch to order in a day or two.

What are your chandlers charging? I think my local guys want about £10.50 per litre for Quicksilver.

As long as it says TC-W3, you're good to go.

That said, when it comes to two stroke oil I've always gone with the engine manufacturer's oil, since you can usually find it for a price that's not much more than the no name/off brand stuff. IMO, it's cheap insurance for otherwise expensive motors.

I remember a communication from a bloke who worked for ELF. He made oil. He could make XD100, or it's equivalent. Apparently it's all smoke and mirrors - if the numbers match up it's all the same.

Obviously, I don't know if this is b@ll@cks or not.

Well I've been using this stuff for about three years now on a pair of Mariner two-strokes and they've been fine so far. And when I got it first time I rang the manufacturer, they sent me a copy of the TC-W3 certification.. Not that I'm suspicious or anything....
