This is as good as Red Armor https://www.amazon.com/Original-TechniPlate-32-Ounce-Quart/dp/B001BHK6D2

Oh I didn't do the math, that's not that bad then! I think Amsoil was around $20/qt? I don't remember honestly. I'm down to less than 4 ounces. I just cracked open the Lucas oil I bought. Probably just dump the left over Amsoil into my tractor tank, since I mix 32:1 and don't really want to mix oils in the same batch.

part synthetic.

 

[jake wells]

still better than what stihl offers.

Not bad then. I don't use stihl oil unless I was given it. Not that I wont, just is pretty pricy.

stihl ultra is cheaper than red armor here.

It's like 20+ miles in any direction to a stihl dealer for me. I don't get there often unless I'm working and detour by one.

I use to run husky XP oil for years from lowes.

@Keith Gandy I don't actually know precisely where my tune was at that particular day. I don't use a tach. In my opinion it was certainly on the "safe" side. Now it certainly could have been my fault and no fault of the oil.
Just that there's no doubt she was dry dry dry inside. The bearing is what gave up. Gave the Piston just enough play to start touching the roof of the Cylinder. A chunk of the Piston or roof of the Cylinder is what stuck the ring. Easier to see in person just what had happened. I'll certainly not use any more Lucas.

A Logging buddy's new/stock 461 did the same within five months using stihl ultra at 50:1.

Its the other way around at the stealership I visit.
