Fake 2T oil?

[kram]

I've been using Castrol Power1 2T, a motorcycle oil, for the last year or so, from Amazon, sold by Amazon.

Its got the correct spec for chainsaws, 

API TC - ISO-L-EGD - JASO FD

 

Previous bottles have all been red oil, this new bottle is plain undyed oil.

 

 

What do we think?.is it fake or have they stopped using dye?

The bottle that I've got is clear also. Just had a look online, and they reckon that Castrol removed the pink dye from their motorbike engine oils last year.

 

I'd say that it is a genuine product, no need to worry.

Glad I stocked up while it was still red.

 

Everyone knows red oil makes your engine more powerful. 💪🏻 🔥

Customer I know worked for local power network for donkeys years. Before he left he acquired a tray of 2stroke sachets, 1 shot type jobs. Anyhow one day, he gets the strimmer out, starts then dies. Same with the chainsaw and then the blower. Transpires it was hand sanitizer not 2 stroke 🙈

I may have told this story before...
A guy I know had an old motorhome, think it was his first time going away in it, he was heading up north somewhere.
He stopped at the garage and filled it right up, think it was a petrol engine in this thing. He keeps heading north, fuel gauge is showing empty, thinks it must be faulty gauge/sender.
The bloody thing runs out of fuel and cuts out on him going across the Dornoch Bridge!!

So he thinks wow this thing has terrible mpg, he's not long filled it up.
He decides to thumb a lift to a garage. Gets 5L of petrol and thumbs his way back. Takes him all day, he looks pretty dodgy stood at the side of the road thumb out, jerry can in the other hand.
Finally he gets back to the van and pours in the petrol. Just as the last drop goes in, he spots a sticker next to the filler cap saying "water". He had been filling the camper water tank up with petrol!!
In the end he phones up a family member to give him a lift to get more petrol!
