What oil is best? and what ratio?

[Isaac]

Wellllllll,deep subject.
The jury foreman has reached a decision, nother words, rest of you jurers don't count.
Bottom end is great shape, piston is worn, must be all da conventional and sthil oil I use to use.

I don't C no stinking rust mannnnn...
Sumones dope must of went bad.

My retired 70 yr old small engine Mech says there is nothing there in da way of corrosion.
" Those guys worrying bout nothin".
Dominator reduced friction, I'm staying on my high horse..

How long had you ran the Dominator before the tear down ? Did you fog the saw after use or before storage? How often does the saw get ran? Just curious because I don't want to tear mine down LOL!

Read a page up please, this 272xp sat with efree high octane, and dominator in it on the Shop floor for 8-9 months. Ran it maybe 5 days in that time..no rust

I may try dominator eventually to see if there's any difference with it and saber.

At 32-1? Which is all I run in saws anymore..

E gas is where the problem is...
I'm running 91 E free this winter.
Warm weather I will go back to 100 'll, burns cooler- not hotter.
I doubt bikes run 11,000rpms plus with the torque load that a modded Saw does for the duration it takes to whack 32"s of oak or hickory again and again.
Bikes are moving ,getting cooling air.
My muffler is buried against a log for the duration, getting hotter n hotter with each cut.
Great oil with anti scuff agents and Efree fuel are the way to go, if you want em to live long and prosper.
Sorry for ranting,, that's the way I C it..

32-40:1 is what I run. I have went as low as 20:1 milling. I usually run 87 e free.

 

[jake wells]

i run 87.

 

[danimal]

I myself feels that 87 burns too hot...

 

[mdavlee]

It may burn the hottest and make the most power. It's always the freshest.

 

[skidooguy]

91 e free is what I usually run. Been using the stuff out of the farm tank lately and not liking it much. Seems to be crap quality and has a lot of water in it from condensating I'm guessing.

 

[skidooguy]

How much you paying for dominator? @danimal is it comparable to saber in price?

 

[jake wells]

i tried 100 and the throttle response was crap and i couldn't tune for it
and i don't want to breathing in lead because all 100 octane and higher in my area has lead in it and it cost 6.99 +.
i burn 87 ethanol free its 2.19.

Uhh. 8$ a qt. If I buy it. Mines free, local dealer. I take him cutting with me.
His dump trailer and kubota and me on me saws. Get him 2 trailer loads to my 1.
I cut bunch of places,, all winter weather permitting.
He burns 12 cords, I burn 20 a yr..
I have him running it instead of sabre now.
He luvs it. Really cleaned out his saws..

 

[mdavlee]

I'll have to look local. Can't afford it online unless I want 4 gallons.

Efree won't deteriorate like pump gas does. E10 is full of chemicals.
100 octane I buy, they swear it's good for 2 yrs after opening..

I buy some canned fuel for storage. Other than that it's efree 87.

 

[jake wells]

[danimal]

[jake wells]

[danimal]
