Worthwhile?  I'll be pulling the engine out of the heap in a

I'm not sure what would constitute a good test that we could run ourselves.
The best indication we have is the TC-W3 designation on the oil.  That tells
you it has passed the latest industry tests for many important 2 stroke oil

designation when mixed at a 1 ounce per gal of fuel ratio will be infinitely
better than ANY 4 stroke oil being injected with the Mazda setup.
