Since Shell recently bought Pennzoil, why do I suspect that the "new" oil is the old Pennzoil "air cooled 2-stroke oil" in a new (and doubtless more expensive!) package?

Probably for the same reason I do.

The smoking gun will be the service grade, as usual Wink. If it meets/exceeds API TC, which is called for in many 2-strokes like the Rotaxen, it'll be good to go.

Tho I'm very impressed with the Aeroshell 4-stroke oil (can't remember the API service grade of it offhand). I just did my first oil change on the 912 on the first tank of the sport 4 plus yesterday (47 hours) and my magnetic plug came out cleaner than I've ever seen it. Tho it was always fine before using regular automotive oil, with the usual light little bit of silt. This time it was slightly cleaner with a little less silt. Perhaps the additives are doing a little bit extra to reduce wear?
Or perhaps this is just down in the noise of normal oil function, who knows Wink.

OTOH, the oil was still greasy and very very black too, two indicators to me that the oil is doing a really good job inside the motor.....
