I would also not buy synthetic, mini engines are supposed to be run on a mineral oil. I can't quite remember why though..

Also ignore the advice of buying platinum plugs waste of money on a mini, esp one that is of relativly standard tune.. The only reason peeps buy platinum plugs is cause you can run a finer tip on them to get a stronger spark which is unlikly to be blown out buy cylinder pressures and they can stand higher combustion temps.
Cheers,
Rich.

Yeah, same as mate.im fed up of spending out on oil, it only get burnt or leaks, so i now buy wilkinsons 20w/50, 2.99 for 4 1/2 l of the stuff
Well infact, we mostly use cheapo Asda stuff now, just because it is easier then carrying two containers of oil through town!

I use Penrite, but costs a pretty penny, think I paid 20 quid for 5 ltrs at a show.
