That is more of a tuning issue and looks like it was run at half throttle
Im not sure how the owner tuned or ran it but only that he stated what oil he used and I know that the same company makes that rickty crap as that oil u like!!:eek::D Just messin with ya Chris. Ive ran plenty of Stihl junk oil and it never locked anything up

I'd trade a few (3) bottles of RA for a qt of Original Techniplate

What size RA bottles? If the 13oz bottles I can trade with ya.
I know the last 2 qt's I sent out cost like $8-$10 to ship due to the weight.

Since I will be running RA in this echo while under warranty. Mixed 3gal of RA and 3gal of KL200 for the spring work.

I'll have to check when I get home.
It's the 6pack size IDK
Make it 4 bottles for a qt.
2.5 ounce bottles maybe?

I read an old oil thread on as weeks ago. Most of them used stihl ultra. The *s-word does stink I had my 55 in a tractor cab with me for weeks. It actually could almost give me a headache. But is the actual oil itself all that bad? I still use any ol thing I find cheap the ultra is a random fill up from someone else's can I'm running a boom mower right now and occasionally it's more worth while to just get out start a Saw and cut some *s-word outta the way
