I run Saber at 40:1 in both M Tronic and conventional saws … does great. If your exhaust is wet, check your tune, it is likely too rich.

Every saw I rip down looks well lubed, and even had a builder comment the same when he ripped one of my saws down.

Whats wrong with a wet exhaust???

Whats wrong with a wet exhaust???

Carbon buildup eventually with too fat a tune no matter the oil and you loose power

 

[RI Chevy]

Ahhh. Ok. That must be my issue.

Yes it is blue,but your muffler should be pretty dry and clean if stuffs ratioed and tuned right .

Yes absolutely. I’ve run that oil at a few different ratios and tuned to match. I’ve lowered to 32:1 now that I have a few ported saws. Dad takes the 3.5 oz bottle and mixes it in a 2.5. Gallon can. So about 80:1.

I have a challenge for those that buy the husky/stihl, etc oils. Take a 6-pack of your 50:1 oil and weigh each bottle. If you weigh them often enough the really light bottles you would hang on to for an exchange or refund.

I found this years ago....I opened a case to restock our showroom and the inside was wet from leakage. We decided to weigh the bottles to find the lightest bottle to find the leaker. Well, we found the leaker and a few more we were kind of scared to sell.

Close...91:1 ratio. I use 32:1 in all my 2-cycles including my trimmer.
They all have adjustable carbs.

Wow on the bottles Not weighing the same

Poor tune

 

[qurotro]

Is this telling you anything ?

Blue oil is good

 

[RI Chevy]

Poor tune

Does it hurt the saw though?
I was being facetious. Lol

 

[ferris]

A to fat tune can also hurt your saws, but is does take longer then a to lean tune

 

[jakethesnake]

I don’t think a fat tune hurts much of anything really. Just leaves some thump power behind

 

[RI Chevy]

Will never lein seize!!! Lol

 

[Nick060200]

So what oil and ratio is best ? Did we come to an agreement yet?

 

[MustangMike]

YES, we have each agreed to use what we use!!!
