What oil is best? and what ratio?

I noticed an increase in throttle response in the ZCS 346 & 066

800 is like H1R. It protects. It isn't best for power.

I'm noticing that.
Just not crazy how Klotz burns on the dirty side

Doesn't matter if they get run 5 gallons a year. 50 gallons plus you might see an issue.

For winterizing would it be worth it to mix some110 up with a little R50?

Has anyone torn down a saw that exclusively ran Husky XP oil? I can get this oil from my local mom & pop Husky/Scag dealer. They know me by name, have gone out of their way to help me out, and have cut me discounts on a bunch of equipment. I don't mind paying $18 a 6 pack of 2.5gal mix bottles since they have taken care of me. I have used this oil it's a pretty blue color and it has almost no smell. No ratings on it of any kind.

I'd run it before most of the crap mentioned on the last few pages.

So are you saying you would prefer the husqvarna xp over the amsoil saber?

Yep, nothing wrong with XP silver bottle oil. Saber cost a ridiculous amount locally and I am not keen on Amsoil either.

XP is FD rated btw. I should saw at least the XP that's pre mixed with fuel. A got a few cans for free when I bought my 580 BT blower.

Thanks for the info on the FD rating. I have the same blower and you need to watch for excessive amounts of oil building up in the air intake pipe. This didn't affect performance in any way though.

I just checked and the oil in the XP fuel is Redmax (FD rating 001LTI001). Can you look at your can and see what the FD rating is on the can. I made a post about canned fuel at Walmart and the oil in that fuel was Redmax according to the FD rating number. I bet these two cans are the exact same fuel.

Walmart sells a canned fuel called Outdoor Factory Parts multi ratio premix which comes from the Husqvarna group. The oil mix in it is JASO FD certified (#001LTI001) which when you check the certification page it's Redmax 2 stroke oil. Click on the link and scroll to #309.

What ever became of the oils that smelled good? I know Klotz has a specific smell, but I thought some smelled like cherry and other aromas?
I know, many smell like sh't, not interested in those, just the good smelling 2 stroke oils. And, on top of that, are they any good?
