To achieve Euro 5 emissions, some manufacturers have resorted to using very thin oils and dynamic oil pumps to reduce drag inside the engine.

I use a similar oil to what you're describing (not Cool Power or Joe Gibbs) which is a pure mineral and 0W20 and can be bought very cheaply. I've used this oil in my UT1s with no problems but I did make sure no residual oil was remaining. Just replace the oil every couple of hours and I wouldn't expect any problems.
