Lynn,
I presume from your comments below that the use of a synthetic in the sump
to be injected is not a good idea........What is your opinion on the use of synthetic
2 cycle oil as a premix for our a/c use other than the fact it is more expensive ??

Synthetic oil is still oil. it is refined to the point that most of the molecules are the same size.
Additives to improve film strength may be from other than oil sources. Film strength is generally much higher than conventional oils. Much more stable at very high temperatures.
Thus a poor choice for stock rotaries that use the sump oil to inject for apex seal lube, since it does not burn at operating temperatures, and thus gums up the apex seal grooves.
