Hey guys.
I need some help in learning what dye they use in the different brands of 2-cycle oils.
I ask because I have been running into a light yellow mix...and customers never seem too know what brand it is when I ask them about it.
I am familiar with most...Stihl-green, Toro-blue, etc. Opti-?.
I know the look of plain old 30w. Straight gas old and new is pretty easy too spot.
Most of the customers tell me that they bought it at the box, or some discount auto stores, or even drug stores, but they never what brand it was. Thanks.

Lint, Perhaps their unit was "on the floor" when they bought it and "Brand new", but already assembled...I know that the manuals that get hung on the floor units have starter cables laying around, OIL BOTTLES kicked under the blower next to it, etc., missing manuals from disrespectful customers. Hence, Homer may have replaced the oil with stabilizer in it with one from their general inventory because it had fallen out of the bag. My box for my 3650 was still "stapled" so I know it was most likely what was shipped from Toro. Best regards, Walt
