What oil is best? and what ratio?

[porsche965]

If you haven't figured out through success after 30 years of two strokes you may want to consider four stroke engines or battery applications.

Then its arguing over 4 stroke oil, volts and ah

If you're not going to over analyze and fret how can you achieve paralysis by analysis?

I use mostly Schaeffers 7000 and a little 2r. I like Schaeffers and I get it far cheaper then all the other stuff.

Yeah I know was just joking around about going off topic onto 4 stroke oils.

We are already into a whole nuther level of overkill on oil. I've found an oil that works well in any saw from the smallest to the largest, autotune, m-tronic, or adjustable. No stink, no nasty discharge. Excellent protection, and easily available.

Now.....why would I want to try a different oil?

Dominator or Yamamma 2R ?

I would have gladly sent you some but that sickness you have. The allergies to surprises ect. If you are patient, i can get back up there and grab you some.

I appreciate that Egg, but I've got enough oil for a while.
I'll try the Dominator for a spell, it's got a tough battle, as this Schaffers 7000 has done just fine in everything I've got.

Either. Or Schaeffer's.

Just about where I'm at as well ........................... seems to be cant go wrong with any of them. Schaffers sure cleaned up that 3120 of mine whilst I was milling with her

Nice. No ones going wrong with Shaeffers.

I settled in on VP. It mixes well with any fuel at any ratio and easy for me to get in pints with the measure your mix tops.

The Supertec FD air cooled tool oil tested well also. It's quite thin though. Good for 25-1 on a mill with or without M-tronic. Never tested it in Autotune saws.

I have seen no reason to shy away from using any of these. Which leads me to stop testing different oils. What's the point if I already have three that I'm very happy with?

No sir I havent

Neighbors getting schaeffers after he noticed no odor
Like his cesspool stihl ultra smells.

So what's the best oil for a 4-mix ?

 

[markds2]

Either. Or Schaeffer's.

Is that Shaeffers Supreme 9000? https://www.schaefferoil.com/2-cycle-oil.html

I've used the 7000 and the 9000. Both seem great.

And you're results are from running normal ratios. Randy I have some blue oil you should give a try.[emoji6]

I'm good. Seriously. I intend to avoid using any new to me oil for the rest of my life.
