lumps in oil

[papajake]

was filling a 1 litre bottle of sinthetic oil from a half bottle and found lumps coming out scared the hell out of me filled sled and rode last weekend phoned distributor they said it was dye that settled to the bottom but shaking it does not disolve it he said to strain it before using it i wonder if this could be some of those strange injector problems people are having taking the remainder of the case back for refund changing oil companies take your bottle shake it then hold it up to the light flowtys not good

Dye or not, I would also be a bit concerned. I didn't realize it was the users job to strain new OIL!

Why do we need dye in the oil?!? I would prefer to buy just oil for the money they are charging. What kind of oil is it?
