Jonsered 2188 in for servicing

Klotz is NOT a saw oil

Other than KL 200 I agree.

Mmmmm R50. I looove the smell.
I didn't run it nearly as long as you must have.

either your using crappy oil or tuned too fat. That’s definitely not normal.

Meh.. I dunno. I guarantee the 2150 I left pictures of was not tuned fat. And R50 isn't crappy oil per say, just not the right oil for the job.

I thought R50 was one of the better ones not having castor oil. I think it's the castor that really did it. Carbon plated piston anyone? I recently switched to R50 after finding out the other oil isn't for long term work stuff. It definitely wasn't tuned rich. I've also wondered if Klots burns my eyes or if regular exhaust will do that, and such a big saw put out so much exhaust that my eyes sometimes burn and water.

Did I mention I looooove the smell? I still use it for milling, at least till I use up what I bought. It works just fine in that application in my 394. But what it did to the others... I'll not use it anywhere else.

I think that’s a good way to word it. Like I said, nothing wrong with running oil made for chainsaws and ope. I have experimented with different oils myself, but keep going back to “chainsaw” oil. Lol

Yep. Its oil developed for specific purpose (ope oil). The Benol always smelled lovely coming out the pipes of a hot yz250 or banshee...

Klotz R/C MODELUBE® GASBURNER® might be fine to use.

I measured:
IN: 75
Tr: 123
EX: 98

Does that sound about right?

So...
Ultrasonic for two days?

I figure it's time to have a look inside after roughly 55 tanks of gas.

Somebody put sugar in your gas

How do you expect Klotz to smell so sweet?

 

[qurotro]

I always wonder how the Klotz smell. I don't have any for sale here.

It smells tastier than a cherry jolly rancher.

Smells awesome like your at a dirt bike race. Imo if one wants a kool smell like klotz but doesn’t want the bad carbon they should try amsoil saber. Smells decent and doesn’t carbon as bad.

I'm running Saber at 32:1. Not impressed by it's smell... I like the smell of some old dino oil I guess. Once a while I could get to fire up some really old 2 stroke ope. Love the smell of the first few sec when they fired up burning the old oil remains for years...
