Is it ok to put Honda Power Equipment 4 stroke oil in a Honda Dirt bike?
My dad went out and bought Honda Power Equipment oil but it is not the same kind of oil I put in my Honda Dirt Bike (CRF 80). Would it work? Or will the oil only work for lawn mower engines and such?
Maybe. the problem is molybdenum in the oil, which can make the clutch slip. This is why you never use automotive oil that's labeled 'energy conserving' in any motorcycle that has a wet clutch (pretty much all of them except Ducati and I believe Harley Davidson, which still uses a non unitized transmission) I don't know for sure if the Power Equipment Oil has Moly or any other friction modifier in it, but I would not use it in a motorcycle without finding out
