To any bus owner who has a 2 cycle Detroit motor. I hope this helps you locating oil. Tractor Supply sells it by 5 gallon pails. $50 for 5 gallons and the ash content is .99 and is still good for your motor. It is called travelers oil, the brand for Tractor Supply. I believe it is made by Shell. Happy holiday to everybody.

Hi everyone went back to farm &tractor had them to call the oil company. The oil company said if it doesn't have cf2 then don't use it. So the all fleet diesal oil dosn't work. The other oils i gave u will work that has cf2. sorry about the wrong advice,willdo better in the future.
