    I have read many articles written on this topic and none suggest or advocate mixing oils with different formulations.2-cycle engine oils produced by different companies are seldom exactly the same. Also, Rotax has been very adamant regarding the use of "outboard" 2-cycle oil in their 582 and 503 units. Lockwood Aviation conducted extension field tests with 582s using various oils several years ago and the results were interesting. I would never mix two different oil products in my 582.

    Don't use a TCW oil and best not to mix.
