If the oil is for mixing with fuel, then you don't want synthetic, as it doesn't burn completely, which could do more harm than good, particularly around sooting and blocking of the cat.

Hello Nodge thank you.
The only thing im sure about this oil is that it is mineral oil as you can see on the lower left corner.
What im not sure is about the other references.
Many thanks

Not sure if you can get it in Portugal, but you'd be much better off using Millers Eco Max every so often.

Why are you using 2 stroke oil at all ? when it's not needed

The question I was afraid to ask! Is there any benefit or need to use?

While the pump should be ok on modern derv. Some people feel added 2 stroke oil helps lubrication of the HP pump, especially were new low sulphur derv is used.
I'm in the middle camp really, I don't see it as doing any harm, although I don't really think it's of much benefit either.

I just put a bottle of Comma Diesel Magic in the tank, once a month.
