Significance and Use
5.1 This test method is primarily intended for the evaluation of lubricants for use in two-stroke-cycle engines of high specific output.
1. Scope
1.1 This test method2 evaluates the performance of lubricants intended for use in two-stroke-cycle spark-ignition gasoline engines that are particularly prone to ring sticking. Piston varnish and spark plug fouling are also evaluated.
