Typical from what I see internally with Stihl Ultra. The carbon itself isnt bad but the buildup in the ring lands and rings are a problem. I see this more in their blower and small homeowner saws

I'm not an expert saw mechanic Keith but I've put top ends and pistons in stihl saws abused by services that lived on ultra and they looked nothing like that.

I ain't buyin' that stihl oil is the cause of that mess.

I think its the small screen but the oil is messy. *s-word oil if u ask me and one of the dirtest Ive seen that 9/10th of what people around here run. Good for my business though!!:eek::D

Alota the folks here run the Stihl Motomix and it looks the same so the oil itself is a large contributor
