What oil is best? and what ratio?

[bikemike]

I agree but I am doing a torture test with am soil at 100:1 on a saw and blower. So far I'm shocked how well it's doing. It burns well at a very wide range of ratios.

Does it smoke at 32.1

Does it smoke at 32.1

if it smokes at 32 to 1 you have a tuning issue ,if anything it will be leaner at 32 to 1 and need fattened up ,oil is thicker than gas so if add more oil it will act lean going through the same size jet ,i have posted before think of 32 to 1 as a milkshake ,and 50 to 1 as a coke ,suck them through the same saw ,the coke will be richer because it flows faster .

Maybe a little smoke on start up and first cut then no smoke at all. Smells decent too. Not it does smell different at 100:1 tho. Kinda almost stings your nose. I thought for sure they would have blew up by now.

Holy crap that's alot of oil!

I'm trying to condition them to eventually a 16:1 mix.

Hp2 always has a little smoke after idling. Another one was like that. I think K2

Glad someone else noted that as well lol, will get some time in with Torco oil to give an honest opinion.

Read a review and one guy thought it was equivalent to mobil1

Mobil is good stuff.

Echo Red Armor. 50:1 just a touch richer.

Have used the Opti-2 for a while too.

Always ran Super Techniplate in my Rotax 583.
Love that smell!
I have about 1/2 gallon left, but it's sled oil. TCWIII

run the sled oil in the lawn boy they spec tcw3 or run it in a saw if you tune rich enough it wont hurt it.

 

[jake wells]

im poor at the moment so poulan 40:1 is being burned.

Jeremy I think we r talkin 2 different techniplates? The one im using is for high rpm and the snowmobile is tcwIII and only rated to 10000rpm from what Im seeing

Yes, K2 will have a little smoke after idling for a bit.

I have some k2, the website recommends 24:1 and 32:1 for 50cc-80cc I assume this is dirt bikes not necessarily chainsaws. I have a slight mm'd 545 with a 16" and a 576xpat bone stock with a 24".. do you guys think 32:1 will do well with 87 e free in both saws for tree felling and bucking? Both saws are AutoTune.

Its worked fine in all mine at 40:1

 

[mdavlee]

32:1 is fine with K2. 40:1 will work in them as well. I think I tried both in the 550. I don't remember any problems with 32:1. 40:1 is probably plenty in those saws with Autotune.

K2 was always a clean burning oil fron my tests

K2 was one of the cleaner burning ones as well.
