What oil is best? and what ratio?

[Mastermind]

You can handle the truth no mater the outcome. I know this.

Factual statement. I have no "favorite" brand on anything. And....I'm prone to change my mind based on other folks testing. Redbull taught me that H1R hurt performance with his oil testing.

I learned.

Hows it work on the rented pigs?

We don't rent pigs.

From what I understand Tree monkey swears by the Shaffers. Has for what? 20 plus years. Great track record.

Swears by it for good reason.

That sucks

So.....

How about 30 weight motor oil at 50:1?

Sorry to hear that, I noticed he hasn't been around lately. He's a good dude in my book, had a good conversation with him at Randy's a few years back.

16:1 I just want to see the carbon.

 

[Mastermind]

Like regular old car oil?

Yeah....the cheap *s-word from the Dollar Store.

I tried ATF at 50:1. 7 minutes. Done. Brand new engine. Rod bearing looked like it had powered rust on it. Dry as fork.

Interesting.

The whole ATF thing blows me away. Untold barrels of that were dumped into diesel to fortify it. Before the dye bs took hold

 

[Duane(Pa)]

Full story is this. I had a brand new NOS engine for that tiller with the wrecked trans. I heat cycled it to break it in proper on 40:1 Stihl orange bottle. After that it was 50:1 ATF. It ran to about 5 minutes and did the same as what the video clip shows. I didn't get it on film. I let it cool and it fired up. Ran 2 minutes and locked up on video. I had to use a hammer and a punch to get the rod off the crank pin.

I remember internet sages saying that stuff ain’t made to burn... in fact when it duz you’re screwed.
They suggested any, even cheap azz, two stroke oil as a better alternative.
This was all being discussed when they started yanking sulphur out of diesel and people were looking for lubricity

After milling with over 13 gallons of Schaffers 7000 at 6oz per gallon on a well used 3120. It has actually started cleaning up the exhaust port ........

 

[Moparmyway]

Exhaust port before


Exhaust port after

 

[Moparmyway]

Plug was new

 

[RI Chevy]

What ratio does 6oz per gallon come out to?

 

[Moparmyway]

 

[RI Chevy]

Looks good Kevin!

 

[Moparmyway]

What ratio does 6oz per gallon come out to?

128 / 6 = 21.3333

Oil is everywhere .... like it should be. It’s gotten MUCH cleaner around the ring lands and exhaust port.

I can’t find anything wrong with this Schaffers 7000 .......

 

[Moparmyway]

She’s getting ported and cleaned to like new .........

here’s the cylinder after I pulled it off and turned it upside down on my bench

 

[RI Chevy]

How did it tune?
I take it the oil has a greenish tint to it?
