What oil is best? and what ratio?

[jmssaws]

I'm fixing to tear my 66 down and it's only had vp 93 and klotz super at 40:1

Looks alil gooey and hot!!! Lol!! Klotz Super?

I can't remember the oil, but it was a bean oil of some brand. Personally, I just bought another gallon of 2R. It's good clean burning oil, that works well in all the engines I build.

Treemonkey turned me on to some Schaeffer Oil, so I plan to try it in the AT saws to see if they tolerate it as well as they do the 2R.

Randy u have probably seen more pistons than most of us here. Is carbon of the hard dry nature normal on the piston top?

Yes. I think seeing a clean piston top is indicative of a oil that is not burning, and is washing the piston. Same for the exhaust port.......should be black with hard dull carbon.

I concur. I have to say Redbulls 661 looks great with that Schaffers

Well that took a total of 5 minutes!!!! Lol!! It has less carbon than what I figured! Looks great

I've never liked what I see in a engine ran on Klotz STP.

 

[jmssaws]

Probably 10 gallons ran through it. But 230lbs of compression and always ran hard.

I think it looks normal. The last couple gallons were klotz benol at 50:1

Im gonna try the Klotz original kl100 in my hybrid for awhile and see what she looks like

was reading various oil articles. This one seems to be really good. Just passing it along.

Good read. One ratio definitely doesn't fit all.

I agree

Get your dyno tuned up and I'll send a 66 with klotz and you with 800 and we'll see what oil makes the most power.

I seriously doubt there will be a noticeable difference in HP comparing oils. If you wanted to compare oils on a dyno, you'd need to use the same saw to limit variables.
