It is used for scavenging. A 2 stroke needs a way for the exhaust gases to be forced out, which in a 4 stroke, is done on the exhaust stroke. The reason a small 2 stroke has oil mixed into gas, is because fuel is in the crankcase, where the oil should be. This is because scavenging (forcing the exhaust gases out) is done by the pressure created in the crankcase when the piston moves down (at which point fuel is forced out of it and into the cylinder, and the action of this forces the exhaust gases out. This is done by a roots blower in a Detroit Diesel. This is why even turbo charged Detroits have a blower aswell. The blower is forcing the exhaust gases out, which is used to drive the turbo. The blower is essentially driving the turbo.
