Thanks for that Keith. I am still learning lots through experimentation. Lol
I love KL200 and if u will be running equipment and not storing it u will have no problems but Klotz states clearly on their site that its not intended as a storage oil.

A little fog spray does help this right?

Ran some KL200 in the064 at 32:1 and it did not lockup lol.

The smell of KL200 is a world less offensive compared to R50 which in it's defense is a great oil however has a different pleasing smell when mixed with 110

Sent from my non internal combustion device.

CR I use the Stabil fogging spray if running KL200 and expect a storage period. Cheap insurance in my mind anyway. The r50 bothered my sinuses but not near as much as H1R

This is one of the components that RA has that Powerblend doesnt ----- Naphtha is a petroleum solvent similar to mineral spirits but with a greater volatility; it is used chiefly as a paint thinner or a cleaning agent. Naphtha is a more powerful solvent than mineral spirits, so less is needed to thin the same amount of paint.
In and of itself this is nothing significant.

Bull! Alot of difference in thoso 2 oils. If u want a cleaner auto engine do u run regular or super? More additives to clean the engine. More cleaners and anti friction additives in RA vs Powerblend. Find another OPE oil that has all thoso
Two cycle oils don't use anti friction additives as a rule and neither of these oils appear to.

Look at your 021 exhaust. It was ran on orange/silver bottle for 25yrs. Send us a pic please
I might still have a pic but it looks different now since I use different oil. I'll see if I still have an older pic. Exhaust port looked similar to Chevy's.

Another RA has that Powerblend doesnt-----

FRICTION MODIFIERS AND/OR WEAR INHIBITORS DERIVED FROM
HYDROCARBYL AMINES AND CYCLIC CARBONATES
The amines are nitrogen disperse ts as typically used in marine/ashless oils. The carbonates are calcium based detergents.

What makes red armor unique is the fact that it appears to use a pretty light weight estor with PIB as the primary anti scuff additive. Haven't seen this before.
It does seem to be a different blend than most. It seems to work well and doesn't leave as big of a mess as some.
