What oil is best? and what ratio?

[Anto86]

I used oil husqvarna xp in the last years. I used this oil for all my engines two-strokes. for my experience this oil is really good. but in italy this oil it's expensive. about 23 euro for 1 litre.
this year I decided to used the strong K70 oil. the jaso classification for this oil is jaso fd, and the husqvarna xp is jaso fd.
what is your experience with this oil? you know him?

There is a chainsaw picture on the bottle of oil and the oil is blue!
so it has to be good stuff

That's good enough for me .

Just bought a quart of KL200, what bottles are yall using to measure mix with? None of my HP Ultra bottles have the clear window on the side. The next time I go to Lowes, will look at the cheap bottles.

i go to the sporting section where the outboard and fishing boat supplies are in Walmart they sell oil mixing ratio bottles for about 2.00

VP is red and it has a very plesant scent even at 32:1. It's one of the few oils that my girlfriend doesnt complain about.

it must smell very manly then lol.

VP fuel in 40;1 and 50;1 mix is available in London at Laser sales on Oxford street for $7.99 a can .
I just got a box of 8 40:1 for my occasional use machines .

I saved a Saber bottle. Has ounce markings and clear window. I also have the fancy mixer. Lol

Thanks guys, just checked my ported 440 run on a strict diet of non e 87 and HP ultra at 40:1, the inside is spot less. Maybe the KL200 will smell better, lol.

Ran pretty close to a gallon of 93 100% Conoco gas mixed 40:1 with red armor. Thinking that will be my mixture for the foreseeable future. Worked great in everything I ran today.

True lol. I can get the red armor for around a $1.20 or so for a 2.6 ounce bottle when I buy 10 seems to be one of the mid-upper tier oils from what I can read. Definitely a lot better stuff than my dad ran in his fs-74 and fs-80 for 20 years mowing yards on the side still using the fs-80 today. He always ran junk oil at 32:1 and never had a problem.

.Bet you guys running red armor are gonna be bummed when you find out it is relabeled H1R .

I've been saving a few of these stocking stuffers for measuring out oil to be mixed. They're 50ml/1.7oz. so I figure 2 jars per gal. = 36-40:1 which is where I like to be.

But h1r is much more viscous. [emoji20]

I just love running my chainsaws. Some oils are better then others. Sad but my main vetting method is. Is the exhaust clean and can I stand the smell. Lol

 

[jake wells]

i can run the cheapest oil sold and get the same results as something that cost 3 or 4x more.
"point invalid here"

 

[hseII]

If that ends up being the case I'll go buy a bunch. I know where there are cases of it.

I'll take a box.
