Are u gonna take the carb off to do that? Shouldnt have to? U can see everything u need to through the exhaust?
Through the exhaust. And given the short duration of your "testing", unless something has drastically gone south your will learn absolutely nothing about the oil your running. The other thing is many wood ticks can't tune a saw carb worth a damn so that skews results as well.

I couldnt begin to know. Redbull showed there r differences from one supplier to the next even with the same octanes. How easily combustible each one would be would be a big factor? Maybe Ben knows the anwser on fuel quality
In most cases the nearest bulk terminal supplys fuel for an entire geographic area. Not totally cut and dried, but close.

What was the Redman run on?
2r, and a few other bike oils over the years. I posted pics and a write up over at AS.
Kieth your 550 issues were nothing to do with orange bottle Stihl oil. A mirror may be a better diagnostic tool for your oil theories. On another note did anyone read the recent links in the AS oil thread where the use of sulphur in synthetics was outlined. The additive helping scuffing that makes your synthetics stink that no one recognises exists in such oils? LOL!
Sulfer, that's funny. Complete BS..
