What are the limits of 87 octane vs compression in a saw? I'm sure it would vary by some by engine design and porting. What's the highest anyone's ran on 87?

Does anyone else feel this thread has the potential of breaking the 200 page mark tonight?

There u go. Some peoples hobby and time spent trying to share with people should be considered or appreciated or I would say people who dont appreciate the efforts r here for the wrong reason?
Keith, what parameters are you using to judge oil performance?

Well here are the pics.... it looks like injestion, but some of that is from pulling the jug and having some dirt appear.

There is no dirt inside the carb or intake pathways.


you can see where the ring kind of moved.
