What oil is best? and what ratio?

[jmssaws]

i ran a bottle of the supertech syn through the 365 and first thing i noticed is no smoke and smell so me likes i have not pulled the muffler off but i tuned it a hair rich and mixed it at 40:1 and done fine.

Is it bright blue also?

The 25 or so 660's I maintain that live on it are the cleanest inside of any I see.

I don't know if that means anything but if you need one clean inside for some reason it's your oil for sure.

A logging and sawmill outfit here only runs the regular supertech, I maintain there saws and have for several years and have never seen a problem from it.

Bout 25 660's all ported.

Be sure to use ring-ring or you'll be cleaning your piston so often your forearms will look like Popeye.

Its really not as bad as u think on carbon

Bet that supertech is as good a oil as a man needs

Well...that's just preposterous lol. Saws don't last using that stuff

No yamaha ring-free or internal cleaning required.

Tune that saw where it burns the oil and u will. U saw the pics of my 461 running it

 

[jmssaws]

If your saw is dirty or oily it's not the oils fault, it's the tune or your using to much oil.

40:1 might be ok with some oil but to much with another,if it sludgy you are using to much.

I think 32:1 is to much with any oil,certainly klotz.

My saws looked nothin like that on 800, squeaky clean and wet.

Obviously not fully combusting

Combustion chamber shouldn't be wet don't you think?

 

[Deets066]

No, it shouldn't be. This is 800 t at 32:1

if it was tuned a little better, I think it would be fine. Even if it doesn't completely combust at least it protects good

 

[jmssaws]

If you don't have carbon it's fat or your using to much oil I believe. I've been wrong before though.

What do you think deeter?

Pic of the piston Deets?

 

[jmssaws]

I'll pop my 066 open tomorrow and see what's doin inside it.

It has had probably 8 or 10 gallons of super technoplate klotz at 40:1 through it since it's been together.


Any bets on what it looks like?

Your right about both, little fat and a lot of oil. But this oil needs a very heavy load to get full combustion I think.

I don't mind running it like this, the saws run good on it and I know it's got good protection. I'm sure it leaves some power on the table though

Carbon on top of the piston like it should be
