What oil is best? and what ratio?

[jmssaws]

It looks like I could go less oil but 50:1 is as far as I'm going. Everything under the ring is dripping with oil.

Does the full circle not atomize the fuel as well or disturb it i guess over a reg crank ? seems like a reg crank would be more like a blender mixing it up more .

I would think just the opposite. The metal full circle should act as a heat sink and pull heat from the bearings and help atomize?

That's a stock crank in the pick

Just saw VP 40to1 or 50to1 at TSC for 19.99 per/gal. TruFuel at Stines hardware is 24.99 per/gal.

eBay you can get 5 gallons sometimes for $60

i try to let mine idle for about a minute before i shut it down.

Blip ping the throttle a few times or pulling the choke works too.

What about Maxima 927 vs Super Techniplate???

I have been back thru the thread some and am still waiting to see how all of the guys are liking the saber pro. I am surprised that anybody is admitting that they have ran it and actually liked it. I do think it's great oil and suits ope well. I have had no issues with spooge at heavy ratios as long as you are tuned nice and crisp. Very little carbon build up, and very little smoke. I sure hope it works as well for its other users as it has for me.

I have ran saber for years. Really like it for ope uses. Seems to perform well under many ratios it has for me anyways. I've ran it in small engines from 16:1 up to 50:1 and i like it at 40:1 for my equipment. My smaller saw seems to like it more than other oils I've tried also. I have ran it exclusively in 2 saws for the last 8 years and have no complaints.

Ive used it a good bit in outboard race motors and OPE. No problems at all. Alil ash on top of piston but thats about it

I signed up for an Amsoil account now I can save 25% on my order and get free shipping. I ordered a case of quarts with the savings it comes out to about $9 a quart.

I don't think ones much better than the other. When I use a castor blend I use Supertechniplate,but only because of the smell. I have ran 927 as well. The both have the same trade offs IME.

What about original techniplate without Castor?

Been using some WalMart Full Synthetic Supertech at 50 to1 in some blowers and weedeaters. Good results so far

Using Klotz Original Techniplate in my ported saws @ 40to1 no problems
