thought of testing the tufoil out in my dad's 4 stroke kapcai.

these kap chais uses a wet clutch i think, gear oil and engine oil integrated, so is it safe to to use tufoil?

i am just worried it may cause the clutch to slip.

if yes, how much tufoil shoudl i add to the small crankcase....i think it holds about 1 litre of engine oil.


this is just for experimenting purpose only.....
 
For 4-stroke bike with an oil sump at the bottom near the foot pedal where you use 4T oil, it's O.K. But not for 2-stroke where you add petrol to 2T oil.

One ounce or less will do. Should you be game enough or need to be cautious yet raring to experiment, you may progressively add 1 tea-spoonful at a time and test it out.Provided off course you do not overfill.Most sumps need a max of 800ml.Adding too much may cause wet clutch to slip. There again it also depends on the health of the clutch plates.On our old '77 ST70, we added about 1 oz with old clutch plates, it's perky performance. We had used semi-syn, leftovers meant for car.
