Oil Questions

ok just curious about a few things with oils

in a car that is burning oil or is designed to burn oil (like mine) which would work better for a lube being induced into the combustion proccess synthetic, dino, or two stroke oil?


how good does two stroke oil lube when it is not being used in a burn situation?
also what is the avg weight for two stroke oils

for dino juice vs synthetic what is the difference in actual viscosity when comparing oils of the same weight


what are problems you can run into when using an oil that has a high content of that stuff that protects agains metal against metal contact... and what is that stuff called again anyway?


which accepts heat better and gets rid of heat (through cooling) a light weight oil or thin weight

and anyone know of a site that goes in depth about differences in oil, testing oils, and all the stats on oils as far as sulfer, ash, viscosity, pour temps and all that stuff?
