What oil is best? and what ratio?

[Keith Gandy]

404

I like 404 skip on a big saw. Loads the saw and pulls well noodling on my 390 setup

 

[CR500]

3/8 8 pin, sprocket is close to a 7 pin 404 setup

I don't have acess to 404 chain so I'm pulling for 3/8

Might get a light weight 24 and try some but for right now 3/8 is my main choice.

Skip ?
What in the world is skip ?

The piston crown should look just like mine.
If it doesn't your not burning it

Seeing the wash isn't bad. If the whole top is clean it's way rich.

Ok serious f-in question for all you damn oil snob perfectionists.



If this is true, if this statement is true, how would one ever come to the conclusion that the mix is not burning completely or it is just bomb ass oil that is fully combusting and keeping the insides carbon free?

You can't burn a fossil fuel cleanly in a 2 stroke. There's always ash.

404 skip = noodle clearer

I do that just fine with 404 full comp

What mower?

Pretty sure that chart is more recent and wasn't with lawn-boy in mind. And the guys that still run them know what to use.

It's a 93 model 10415 lawnboy

 

[jake wells]

hey guys... I amtrying to figure out which setup to use for oil test.

What can you guys tell from these vids? ...got 8pin 3/8ths or 7pin 404


36" 8pin RS full comp 3/8ths

36" 7pin RS full comp .404

404 7pin looks faster.

It's all I use. Only efree available around here. Can get 93 efree about 30 miles away

 

[mdavlee]

I buy the 87 all the time. It's always freshest any way.
