None whatsoever.....I've used them all too.....but have been accused of using red diesel by the person that last changed my fuel filter....the dye in red diesel is different to the colourant used by oil manufacturers it's very specific and detectable by customs so using red 2 stroke although arousing suspicion won't get you into trouble :)

You're probably best off with blue if you can get it, because they use green for rebated fuel oil in the Republic of Ireland. So they would still be suss :D

I looked in to this before and outboard 2 stroke TC-W3 specifed oil seemed to be the one to use.
