When Mobil 1 first came out I had a car come in that was using it for 3000 miles, it was forming hard silica like deposits on the rotors and spark plugs. Went back to petroleum and eventually they went away. He was lucky none broke loose.
Save your money and stick with oil if you still have metering system. I someone does guarantee that their synthetic was made specifially for two stroke use then that may be an option.
This was a problem with the older synthetic oils, the new synthetics burn just fine and is perfectly safe to use with cars running the OMP
