Generally 2 cycle oil producers use phosphorus as the detergent and throughout the compression / combustion / exhaust cycles you will have deposits and also blow by.

ok so you say use a reputable additive company. Would you ever consider Zmax? There is a pretty large post on Zmax on here somewhere. I just wanted your opinion on Zmax.

I am with the understanding that 2 stroke oil is ashless and made to be burnt

Like I mentioned in previous post choose an additive company that has a reputation with dealing with refiners. Therefore they are inline in regards to the quality of the fuel. I would stay away from companies advertising on late night TV. Such as god rest his soul Billy Mays Hays... So if you have seen them on TV then no.

Using Gasoline verses Diesel. Plus, the gasoline and two stroke are blended very light ratio's. Please keep in mind the difference in the 2 stroke engine design vs. a four stroke design. Totally different.

Diesel Power Brand Additive is a No No ? , Aside from fitting your sterio type for poor additives and ad nauseum why do we not want to use them additives?

We respect your stand on not telling us why your better than everyone else , but we would like to know the dangers of using products that are not yours.

I don't know who makes it "Diesel Power Brand Additive". The main thing you have to remember is blending additives is like baking a cake, there has to be an equal amount of all components to reach the claims that someone is making. Having the additive chemistry knowledge, years of experience, and fuel knowledge are essential to formulating products that work. For example, every year we test over 300 fuel samples to make sure we have an idea for the winter fuels in the northern regions. 2005-2006, we spent thousands of dollars trying to find the right formula to handle ULSD in the winter time. Because of the Hydrotreating and sulfur extraction, conventional CFI's (cold flow improvers) were not effective in paraffin wax modification process.

Do you sell factory direct or do you have a network of vendors ?

We have direct salesmen across the country. That being our salesmen are 100% full time and don't do this just so they can get a discount for their own personal use or for friends.

Interesting statement:

What will be the benefits of using Schaeffer instead of 2-stroke?
Is there a direct comparison in aiding lubiricty?
Disadvantages?

I burn all sorts of used lubricants in my trucks. Rather than spending time giving my oil back to the oil companies to recycle and sell back to me again, it gets finely filtered after coming out of a sump, gearbox, pump, whatever. Mix it with 2-stroke, been doing it for years. Have never repaired or replaced an injection pump, fuel pump or injector on either a 1st Gen 12V or an '07 commonrail running at about a 60-1 fuel-add ratio. Both now running better than new.

Not to line the pockets of greedy oil company stockholders, or to fatten the bottom line of their vendor and marketing partners. I don't care who they are, Exxon-Mobile Shell, BP, or their smaller rivals lke the little blenders Amsoil and Schaeffers or the myriad of related snake oil sellers. They are all a bunch of thieves.

I suspect the only reason they conceded the ULSD issue to the EPA was to open up new profit potential in the fuel additive market both retail and industrial by bottling the refinery dregs and selling that too. Saves on waste and recycling cost when they can sell it to consumers, dontch'a know! Those bastiches been making too much money for too long.

JMHO.
