How much is 2 stroke oil these days? I bought a snowmobile years back from a guy who gave me his supply of Yamalube for it..... 20 gallons! I've still got like 16 gallons of Yamalube. LOL!

Yamalube aint cheap. I burn through plenty of it on the boat. You can put that 16 gallons on the back of you Kwacker and ride it on out here.

Oh no. It's mine. And at the rate I burn it in the IT175 and the chainsaw I have enough to last until 2035.

Or maybe I can sell it to Ken for only $52.00/quart.

I had a similar oil change on my speed6, about $110 for mobil1. Now with the aero belly pans they charge you more to remove it too.
