I also used Aero oil. In my case it was Texaco Hvoline Aircraft
Supreme. It has treated my engines very well. The additives were
intended for many of the same operating conditions our cycles run under.
Temperature ,loading , layup/storage . Indeed ,a Guzzi air cooled has
more in common with a Lycoming than a Taurus
Whatever theories are brought up ,EXPERIENCE says IT WORKS !
That is enough for me !

time it
was new. I recently pulled the pan off and it was spotless.
