I have a couple of skis that I haven’t ridden in a few years, both with blown up 951s. I siphoned the old gas out and am burning it in my car and lawn tractor mixed with fresh gas. The oil is the expensive BRP synthetic. The oil tanks look fine and are mostly full. Can I siphon out the oil and burn in in my other two stroke skis? Does 2 stroke oil ever go bad?

Does XPS oil ever spoil?

I can't imagine that oil 'expiring'. but looks like most sites say about 4-5 years for 4 stroke oil, so I assume similar...

If it was me, I'd use it.
Also, if you're near PA, what blown 951s do you have
? I used to only deal in 951s.

The blown engines are from 1998 and 1999 gtx ltds. Both blew out the balancer bearings and have holes in the side of the cases. I am rebuilding the 1999, bought a used case from Nick at Westside and sent it and the engine to Dave Fairchild at Fullbore last September. Due to WSM shortage of carbed 951 crankshafts I may not get it back this summer
The skis are near Janesville WI

In this case the OP has 951’s that don’t have rotary gears so no chance of metal in the oil tanks.
