What oil is best? and what ratio?

[Canadian farm boy]

I forgot about the Ams oil. I can also get that. I may have to order it but that's not a big deal

 

[junkman]

I get mine off the matco tool truck that stops by my work ,not sure if all tje tool trucks sell it or just my area rep

I have ran many gallons of amsoil dominator, 9$ a quart vs 14$ a quart for klotz.

Theres a small gas station near me that sells amsoil

I've looked for klotz oil. Nearest distributor is a couple hours away

Which do you prefer.... honestly if guys on here are seriously going to run it exclusively.... we could possibly split a case or 2

Klotzlubeman has some decent prices. I remember breaking down a case and it came out to about 30 a gallon.

Hell maybe I can look into distribution myself. I used to help sell K100 fuel treatment to WNY at my old job.

40:1 in ported 545 and soon to be ported 562. Might try 32:1 ratio

Ran a gallon of Yamalube 2R and now I am trying Motul 710 2T.

Mufflers are dry.

I am a firewood cutter. I do not mill with my saws as from what I read a thicker oil, lower ratio might be better.

Ah man Keith, some of the best food Ive ate was standing around a picnic table in Baton Rouge.

I stop cooking gumbo after winter. Then it's purple hull peas and mustard greens. Time to start my garden.

Have you ever experienced an engine malfunction due to your mix/oil? Also, what's the longevity of your big saws before an internal malfunction? Loggers I talk to normally get, on an average, between 1.5-2 yrs. out of a saw.

If you get a chance, post some pics of the internals (piston/rings, piston crown, and crank) comparing the two.

That's why I workout.....eat and drink what I want. Swinging a maul into some hardwood is a good workout too.

Been back in the gym about 3 weeks now but im not tryin to be Arnold but just decent shape and feel good. At my age and as busy as I am Im content with being fat and happy!!

I haven't been to a gym in years. I used to go all the time before I got married and had kids. Over the years I slowly gained about 20lbs. My weight always fluctuated with the seasons between 230 and 240. Last January I decided enough was enough. I'm still not going to the gym but I have completely changed my eating.
I now eat every 3-4 hrs. I eat small high protein low carb meals. I've cut back on lots of little things like how much sugar is in my coffee and I'm now using 5% cream instead of 10%. Almost no bread.
As of this morning I'm down to 208lbs. I'd like to drop another 20lbs. I haven't been this light in 20yrs. I haven't been under 200lbs since grade 9.

Never had any problems from gas and oil. I don't keep track of how long a saw last but I'd say 2 or 3 years if it's taken care of.
