What oil is best? and what ratio?

[KenJax Tree]

Thats crazy..4 seconds between 87 and 90, but 15 seconds between 90 and 93.

Do you think you would see the same results if you tuned the saw to the max RPM (in the wood while cutting) for each type of fuel

Reason I ask is that sometimes I think that tuning to a particular RPM is kind of handicapping the fuel

Really hard to do on a mill. If I tune on the edge like normal cutting by the end of the cut it's cooked. These are short cuts for milling but a square foot of wood cut in 25-30 seconds where that takes 10 seconds for a cross cut or round about.

I see redbull selling everything that is left to set up a chainsaw mill for testing 5 minute test cuts now

 

[stihl saws]

Yes, and we will all be anxiously waiting for the results. Then another 40 page thread will follow.

 

[Redbull661]

you mean 400 pages. lol

 

[stihl saws]

That sounds about right. I've found a lot of those quite good though.

what the hell did you do to an ms280? evil genius.

about 2 grand worth of parts and labor

I just kept doing what the guy wanted. told him from the start it was the wrong saw to build a race saw out of, but that's what he wanted.
he was a little upset when I pulled a 026 with a scored p&c out of a junk box. cleaned off the ruff stuff, freed up the ring, 1 hour port job, 044 carb, and beet his saw

 

[tree monkey]

he can put his saw on this if he wants.

chain was not as sharp as it could have been

87 e free 32-1 scheafers

 

[mdavlee]

Any one see this?

 

[Ozarker]

mdavlee,

All I can see are 1. a large, black rectangle, followed by 2. a chart that is too small to read, followed by 3. another large, black rectangle. Unable to click on any of them, too.

But, I would very much like to see them.

 

[skidooguy]

If you google 2 cycle oil test results it should come up. It was all done on snowmobile oil though.

 

[darkimpulse]

Believe I found the chart in the middle.

klotz tc-w3, says pass at the end
Polaris says fail at the end
interesting

 

[mdavlee]

I was loading it from my phone. I didn't know if it would work or not. I wish there were more regular oils instead of sleds but it is what it is. The rpm breakdown was most interesting part.

 

[huskihl]

Damn. Doesn't look so good for the fd cert citgo sea and snow or the Lucas I bought. Oh well. Let 'em fry. I ain't throwing it away

Is the polaris an injector oil they were using as mix maybe ? The injector ones are much thinner .

Anybody ever tuned a saw, then pinned the throttle for a tank of fuel just for *s-wordsandgrins?

All the time milling.

 

[huskihl]

All the time milling.

Yea, but no load?

I have to agree though. I milled up 4 16' poplar logs from 20" down to 14" dia with the 7900. Even with an 8 pin the rpms are much higher while milling. The larger ones took more than a tank of fuel per cut

Lucas may not be the best in a snowmoblie, but in OPE its more than good enough.
