What oil is best? and what ratio?

[Keith Gandy]

Did I read somewhere here that super tech is rebranded citgo? If so I would run it any day

Yes. I posted a link to WalMarts msds and they state Citgo

 

[skidooguy]

That's great. Yamalube also used to be citgo as well. I don't know if it still is or not.

I believe not anymore, Also Mystik oils were sometimes labeled Citigo

Also on the bar oil subject Mystik offers a bar and chain oil at around 16 bucks a gallon

Sent from my non internal combustion device.

The super tech that most are talking about is super techniplate. Lil bit different than wally's finest

I used to run citgo 2 cycle in every thing I had from bikes to saws to sleds. Still run it in my stock sled. The turbo sled gets redline as the builder asks and recommends.

Who built your sled?

I'VE got 2 gallons of citgo oil to burn up. I'll post some tear down pics of the current stuff I'm using before I switch

It was built by the surgeons at aerocharger.

i checked the msds on the walmart supertech synthetic 2 cycle air cooled oil and it has a lot of different ingredients.
its blended by warren oil, i tried loading the page to here but it wouldn't let me so i took a photo of it instead.

the last 3 items are sometimes used as octane boosters or anti knock agents i think, its been to many years since chemistry class in school.

Yep, I did an article many years ago on octane boosters and recognized the additives. Toluene as I recall was called Methyl Benzine in some literature. We used to get it in small 20 liter drums and could add it to our fuel. I even remember adding some acetone to raise the octane rating. Of course, you needed a sufficient compression ratio to actually utilize the octane rating, otherwise you could loose power, but it was legal whereas methyl alcohol wasn't.

There wasn't much in it other than a desire for reliability. Even if you ran straight methyl alcohol you could only hope for about a 6% increase in power over gas/petrol unless you bumped up the compression - then you might get an extra 15%.

Liking the Klotz KL100 original so far. Smells like the Super Techniplate

I when I look up kl-100, it's the # for super techniplate. Whats the difference?

Ya I had thoso #s backwards. 200 is original which is 100% synthetic techniplate and kl 100 is super which is 80% techniplate & 20% castor oil

 

[jake wells]

so 80% oil and 20% super glue.

Lol!! Why super glue?
