What oil is best? and what ratio?

[RI Chevy]

I use RA. It was @Keith Gandy approved.
Lol

Yikes!!! Well I guess I will use something else. I'll use the rest in the tractor to dose the diesel fuel. Yea I know that's really tcw3 oil, but it will be ok. It's an old school diesel it will burn anything and like it.

You’d be fine, mix it at 25:1

Some oils on that list surprise me.
I couldn't find the Dolmar oil on the list.

It's not. I went out and looked at the case and a bottle. I could've sworn it was rated. But citgo sea and snow is. And this stuff leaves less carbon buildup than sea and snow

If ya don’t have much left I’d burn it up. Still would probly go 25:1 on it though

I figure as cheap as the Lucas is. I’d just dump it in the bar oil tank. If I need 25:1 to feel safe I’ll just go with a different oil

I think I have half a quart or is it enough to maybe not quite mix 2 gallons?

Only reason I say that is because a well known member here runs the snot outta Lucas at 25:1 and has no issues

I’d buy that

 

[jakethesnake]

32:1

I’ve got enough left to make a gallon or more. I got ready to give it another go Gotta knock this hedgerow down. I’ll try it when I firewood some.

 

[Deets066]

I’d buy that

Runs in race saws as well

 

[danimal]

The doctor...he said it started to hurt pretty bad.

He just needed to soak it in cider.

 

[mdavlee]

I know @mdavelee was useing it milling a few years ago, seemed to be happy at the time.

Ok so I am now on the search for some more oil. I am thinking of useing echo Red Armor this time.

If you run real rich like 24:1 it is enough oil. If it sits for a month or two it doesn’t seem to leave anything behind. It’s definitely not a storage oil.

 

[Moparmyway]

@Moparmyway has had some interesting finds as well after using Lucas. It leaves saws very dry as Jake said. Not real good to use. Much better options.

Two weeks sitting and the Meteor aluminum piston was corroded.

I only use it as assembly oil, straight outta the jug. It’s so thin it runs like water. I’ll never buy it again

NOT good, cause like us all I have several saws. It will be months between start ups!!

Not good. I'm on the hunt now for a different oil. What's left in my mix will get dumped in my k10 Chevy. I have more saws than i can use like most of us. I will dump every saw and run them all till warm then put up. I may just get a bottle of Husky XP oil till I find what I will run for awhile.

I did notice my mufflers were not as wet as with other oils.
