#2 I've wondered about this. What would actually happen? The smoke point of vegetable oil is higher than non-synthetic motor oil. I suspect it would break down faster though and gum things up? Or the viscosity is wrong (too thick or thin)?
Reginald, LOL You try it first! :P I agree with your saying it would break down faster and gum things up. The viscosity would be thick. It'd definitely cease the engine after so many miles.
Reginald, I did that once, I had a little 50cc 2 stroke motorbike and it was out of 2 stroke oil and the gas station was only like 2km from my house so I figured i would just use sunflower cooking oil and didn't care if it damaged the bike because it was pretty wrecked anyway. It made it there, and after i put 2 stroke oil in it ran for another 5 years. But the bike always smelled like popcorn after that.
#18 this one is funny because you may get a different result based on how you calculate it if i enter 2+2*4 into google or android i get 10. if i enter it in the windows calculator or my actual desk calculator i get 16.
