Most people think of 2-cycle engines as the small engines found in chain saws, leaf blowers, and string trimmers or larger versions found in snowmobiles and outboards.

Many don’t realize that there are 2-cycle engines that are just as large as 4-cycle engines, maybe larger. Detroit Diesel and other manufacturers have been manufacturing 2-cycle engines for decades that have oil sumps and valves and operate basically the same as a 4-cycle engine.

An evaluation of AMSOIL Signature Series 5W-30 Synthetic Motor Oil in standard and Double Length Sequence IIIG Engine Tests. The Sequence IIIG Engine Test (ASTM D7320) is an industry-standard test designed to evaluate automotive engine oils for high-temperature performance, including oil thickening, piston deposits, oil consumption and engine wear during moderately high-speed, high-temperature service. It must be passed to meet the API SN and ILSAC GF-5 motor oil specifications. Results in the 100-hour test are an important indicator of how well a motor oil will perform in real-world service.
