I need to know what brand of 2 cycle oil I should use to mix with my gas? Also where can you get it from? Can I pick it up at my local parts store(ie... Autozone, Advanced, Orielly's, Pepboys etc...) or do I have to special order it from somewhere? Also how is this going to affect the life of my fuel filter? Am I going to have to change it sooner or am I going to have to use a different brand of filter? Thanks.

any two stroke tcw3 works. valvoline seems to be the easiest/cheapest

Does anybody know if the 2 storke TCW3 oil affects your fuel filter? If so is there a special filter that I should be using? Thanks.

the W, for wet, like in boat engines etc...

TCW3 is okay for fuel filters.

add the 2 stroke first, and then pump the gasoline. this way the fuel that pumps in later will help mix the 2 stroke oil.
