I use to deal the Amsoil products years ago when I was in boat racing. Great products

 

[Keith Gandy]

I’ll split a case with you Ryan, if you want to. I usually run the Dolmar oil anyways.
2 1/2 gallons is a lot for me, though, so half would be great.

1.25gal. For 21$ shipped is a deal!

I have a few guys that used to use Amsoil diesel oil in their trucks, until they got a UOA done and were shocked at the results.
Needless to say, none of them use Amsoil anymore.
Not trying to knock the product, just stating facts.

Sure, my firewood delivery is about over so I don't need a whole case and I've wanted to try it.

It’s been very good for me so far. I haven’t torn my saws down to check them after running it, though, but a certain saw porter who shall remain nameless sent me pics of my saws when he had them apart. They looked great, and that was when I ran them at 50:1. Running 40:1 now, just for good measure. He even asked me what I used, so he could buy some for himself. I have no reason to doubt him on that matter.
I just got done running about a gallon and a half of gas with Woodland Pro Synthetic through my backpack blower. It might work well, but smells like *s-word. I won’t be using that again.

Cool. I’ll order it it up, and send you half when I get it, if that works for you. I can ship for next to nothing through work.

Lol on the Woodland!!

Yeah, I was surprised. I’m usually not one to complain about smells, loud noise, or *s-wordty conditions in general, but even with the exhaust on the blower coming off my back I could smell it.

Fact of the matter. There are many good oils out there. If it works for you, then use it. Many good options.
I used Stihl orange bottle oil for over 20 years in a Stihl 029. Piston and cylinder looked like new when I sold it s few months ago. [emoji106]

I really like amsoil gear lubes and lower unit oils too.

When I ran the Mercury Pro Max 280hp on my boat we were looking for a couple hundred more rpm on the bigend. Amsoil lower unit mixed 50/50 with tranny oil did just that. Usually had to spend several thousand for thoso last couple hundred on the topend

 

[Greenerpastures]

Works out to 8.75 pint or $17.50 qt.
Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.com/itm/302470032222

Hi Keith, thanks for the link, I can get it in the US,

And its cheaper than the Husqvarna XP stuff here.

I've seen saws live lives you can't believe and still make it a few years on stihl oil..this stuff gets ridiculous sometimes.
