Oil Consumption check

I thought I would do an oil consumption check as well. The engine should burn 2% 2T engine oil. That would mean that if I get 3L/100km, I should get (3*0.02) = 0.06L/100km of oil consumption. Or a whopping (1/0.06*100) 1666km per 1 liter bottle of oil. We'll see. I figure the most scientific way to do this is to run the thing nearly out of oil, so I can fill up a whole bottle, and see how many km I do when I run out of oil again.

So this is what the visual gauge looks like when a Vespa PX is low on 2T engine oil

My test begins at 31620.7 km

And by the way, previously I had used 2-Stroke Oil SIP Formula Race. At 7.20 EUR per liter, I thought this was pretty expensive. So I thought I would try Orlen Mixol S at 3.60 EUR.

NEVER AGAIN!

OMG, what a disaster cheap 2T oil is compared to the SIP stuff. The SIP was literally smokeless and odorless. Now when I go on the gas with a cold engine, I have a gigantic cloud of blue smoke behind me. It's crazy ridiculous terrible bad. When I start the thing up in the morning in the garage, a thick haze fills the air with a sickly smell. The difference in the color and odor of the smoke is easily worth the price of the SIP oil.
