Someone left this message at my YouTube video. Any knowledgeable opinions on it? Might this be appropriate for pickling the engine for winter/storage?
Thanks.
"I have got a very good hint for you to keeping the nice old Sports Engine in good shape with todays ultra dry eco fuels: Use 1:100 API TC two stroke oil / fuel mix as regular driving fuel, that keeps the old fuel-system gaskets, rubber parts, alloy parts etc... and cast iron metal surfaces of those vintage engines in excellent shape...and it also lubricates the valves and upper piston regions. Most Mercedes vintage owners in Germany do so
Also keeps carbs and EFi injectors clean as new!"
