Title: What oil in the jet engines
Post by: asupan on January 18, 2012, 12:44:29 AM
Wanted to find a source for the oil for my wren 70. Please can you share a source for it.

What are the jet fliers in India using?

BP2380, mobile DTE light.

Thank you augustinev sir. I have used Mobil jet II earlier. On my return here I don't know what oil is available for my turbine. Traveling is not an issue at all.

Ujjwaana :   You are most welcome to jamshedpur. We are just starting with jets here. We have the luxury of a very good airport which are ideally suited as there is no regular flights here.

See Ashutosh I am in the exact same dilemma for what Oil to use for the Turbine Kingtech K100G.

Kingtech has cleared recommended that Oil other than Kingtech oil would void me of the warranty Further clearly banned Aeroshell 500 and Two stroke oils. Kingtech Oil however is not shipped outside US and Contiguous.

Karthik RCD has been kind enough to spare a few cans from his stock for now.

Reading various forums Kingtech guys and tech support and has however permitted and allowed use of Aeroshell 560 and BP 2380

I can see that these two suppliers of India are supplying these oil in India.

Team aviation New Delhi

Globe Aviation Mumbai
http://globeaviation.in/consumable_products.html#all (http://globeaviation.in/consumable_products.html#all)

Globe aviation has confirmed availability but he is been a stickler for minimum order qty of 24 Quarts.
Team aviation is yet to confirm availability.

Wonder should I pick up a 24 Quarts at one go? that's a lot of oil!!! at 5% its 480 Ltrs of fuel, almost 23 hours of flight time, almost to the first service recall.

What is the Oil you are using and whats the source?

Dear Sir,

I bought my Mobil Jet Oil MJO II from teamaviation, Delhi. I bought 12 Quarts as that was the minimum Qty that they sold to me. Wren engines are fine with MJO II.

Please check if MJO II is fine with Kingtech. If yes then I can give you from my stock. These have a self life of 9 to 10 years so you should be fine for usage point of view.

I think if you have 2 cans then it should last a some time. 

I chose 5% mixture with JetA1.

Thanks Asutosh, today I was able to reach out to team aviation. In the order of recommended oils would like to go in for Aeroshell 560 or BP 2380. For us more than getting a 24 Quarts carrying it around every move is a pain.
