What oil is best? and what ratio?

[jake wells]

Supertech synthetic has almost no smell to my nose , mixes good, no smoke, and ope was responsive in all I ran it in

i mixed up some for my edger and the only thing i wish it had was stabilizer.

mtronic saws can handle up to E25 according to a local stihl tech.

cant handle a big end bearing though hahaha

well they could use better bearings.

methanol will destroy rubber parts in a carburetor.

Yes if left in, it won't take too long. But if flushed with gasoline after it'll be fine.

Residual oil is a product of ratio and how the motor was operates prior to shutdown. Oil brand really doesn't have much of any influence on this.
The other parameter your using is totaly subjective in nature.

I agree 100%.

If someone came here to find out what is the most suitible oil to run in their saws, I think they'd be in trouble and exit the thread confused with a headache.

Ive found mine no matter what anyone else says

Do you have any saws pushing over 210psi? If so, I'd like to see if your results were different than mine.

The only one was a 390xp. It was 215-220. I didn't get anything but sluggish response with the 110. The 395 hated it milling and it was 190 lbs.

I'm here for amusement! I'm gonna try klotz benol cuz Jason says it smells good. But I've yet to see one of my saws have an issue with lube. And I've been running 50:1 mostly Stihl orange for 15 years.

I ran the same oil i do now before I ever heard of the Internet.
Nothing in this thread has changed my mind.

I've got plenty of methanol if your ever out my way. I'm not sure about shipping it? Is it legal to ship? I'm not sure but dry gas may be pure methanol as well.

Rc shop might have everything I need. If not I'll search a little harder. If you don't lie it's hazmat which adds about $20 to shipping.

I got a gallon of 85/15% mike,I'll give it to you tomorrow

here is theory saws that use oil that have a lower viscosity and flash point will make better power than other oils that have a higher viscosity and flash point. as the oil that is burning with the gasoline will produce more BTU's than the other other that is not being burnt and left behind in the engine.
that is the way my little pea size brain understands this.

 

[jmssaws]

Oil that's burning will certainly make more power.

Cool. I'll play with it when I get home. Got a few carbs to try out on smaller saws to see if the flow is enough.

I tried making a carb feed enough on my 064 but never did get it to flow enough
It's mixed with klotz from the factory.
Way to much oil in it really

This is why I went with K2 over 800.
