New motor oil- good for IP lubrication with low sulpher fuel. Used motor oil- supposed to be OK in small amounts- the idea being there is no benefit to using it, but it's a great way to get rid of it a bit at a time. I do the same with my stale chain saw gas- just a couple of quarts per tankfull until it's gone (same idea as the Air Force mixing toxic waste in their jet fuel- if they can do it why can't we?).
