Looks like it should to mee. Looks like it's been used like it should be. One thing that makes it rough is the starts and stop those little buggers do all day. They never really get warmed up really good from the climbers I've seen.

Been breaking in the Five Six Duece with some 2R about 5-7 tanks o far at 32:1. Plug has a nice brown to it despite being a touch boggy

EL48 will be purchased next week!!

Saw runs real good, have go try a new chain due to mine self feeding very good, but you can tell it is to much when you get a little heavy handed haha

Glad I bought it!!

less oil can help with the bog sometimes in my experience

@jmssaws I just mixed two gallons of that stuff man trying it in my stock saws smells not to bad to me at 44.1 just trying a bit over 50.1 well see....

I've used lots of Lucas oil. Its a thinner oil so i mixed it a little heavier at 36:1 instead of 40:1. Good oil though.

I'd be very nervous about running less oil in a strato and electric carb controlled saw. They have much less oil going through them than a standard two stroke with a carb.
My 562 runs great at any ratio down to 20:1. Mine came with the EL 48.

"to each their own" My 441 rcm hasn't blown up running 50:1 yet wonder why? I'm not here looking to argue with anyone, Just giving my information from experience. I have a Very good friend running saws I mean "Strato" saws With oil ratio's that you think wouldn't be possible and He cuts over 220 cords of wood a year and has no problems what so ever, Doesn't mean He's right and your wrong, just preference.

Seems too much oil in mtron/At would create more drag and make the system hunt for more rpm? Possibly create more heat? Thoso systems have their limitations on adjustment I think but Im really not sure but seems it will add or take fuel away dependant on RPM?

They don't just try to achieve a certain rpm Keith, it tests the saws reaction to richening and leaning the saw many times a second. The algorithm chooses the best amount of fuel for the load based on these reactions. The way it works is quite simple and elegant. And it can compensate for lots of variables this way.

My algorithm was way off on my 550xp then!! Lol! It had to go to Virginia for diagnostics
