* Mopeds are incredibly diverse. There are hundreds of different makes and models from all over the world. Each moped uses a different engine, and those engines have specific oil requirements.
* Oil recommendations change over time. What was recommended in 1980 may not be safe or ideal today.
* Your moped's manual is the most reliable source. It will have the exact specifications for the oil you should use, including the viscosity and type (mineral, synthetic, etc.).
How to find the right oil:
1. Locate your moped's owner's manual. This is the most important resource!
2. Check the engine specifications. If you don't have the manual, look up your moped's model online. Many manufacturers' websites have downloadable manuals or technical specifications.
3. Consult with a qualified mechanic. A local shop specializing in mopeds can help you choose the right oil.
Important: Never use oil that doesn't meet the specifications for your moped. Using the wrong oil can damage your engine.
